  I've got a nursery rhyme cd that I play to Charlotte. Got it free last year with one of the baby mags, although tbh I don't know all the words to some of them. It's really good to play to her though. I'm sure someone will sell one similar.
  She prefers to bop along to music! And she's just started to really enjoy me reading to her (she's 1). I don't think it matters what you sing/read to them as long as you are interacting with them.
  Bet your neighbours will think you are mad singing Jingle Bells in the middle of summer - lol!!!!!!

  LMAO Katie, Oscar loves Macho Man 'Macho macho man, i wanna be a macho man!' i make his amrs to strong man poses and wiggle him about he loves it
  
  We go to a baby music group once a week and sing all the nursery rhymes and some other songs, but i have a terrible memory and can never remember them so i usually just end up making up rubbish or singing him pop songs, i don't think they're fussy they just like to watch us look like loonies x

  I can't belive I didn't admit it until you admitted macho man, but I have been seen dancing and singing the Time Warp or Blame it on The Boogie to Archie. Who needs nursery rhymes ??
  Actually there is a music gourp for babies near me, I might call and ask about it. S x

  Gabe loves Pat a cake. He has just started clapping his hands when I sing it and clap (albeit at all the wrong times!).
  Also that song "3 little speckled frogs" or whatever it's called...he laughs when you say "GLUB GLUB" at the end lol

  I do as many nursery rhymes as I can remember, but I do tend to forget the words. Or I just make up silly words about what we're doing, so I sing about changing nappies or cooking! And I've also got a couple of children's song CDs which I put on sometimes when I haven't got the energy to sing.

  I sing anything that comes into my head. I tend to know all the words to songs from musicals so there's a lot of things like Doh a dear, getting to know you etc.
