The John Denver Trains CD is really good. He won an Emmy posthumously for it. It really is a great one! Oh- I have one more recommendation. The John Denver Trains CD is really good.

My Hair Had a Party Last Night, Pico Di Gallo, Big Trouble, Proper Cup of Coffee, When I Was a Dinosaur, 18 Wheels On A Big Rig, The Window, Day Care Blues, Five Little Ducks, and the beautiful Lullaby: (K. Grimwood/E. Idlet) Close your eyes, and I'll sing you a song, Lullaby, sleep until dawn. The cricket's serenade echoes softly through the night. The stars are on the lake, and the moon is shining bright. Don't worry, I'll leave the light on in the hall; Just go to sleep now, close your eyes. Close your eyes, listen to my song, Lullaby, sleep until the dawn. The birds are in their nest, and the cows are in the barn, The covers on your bed will keep you safe and warm; Don't worry, I'll be beside you should you call, Just go to sleep now, close your eyes. Dragons in the sky, Flying with their golden treasure, If you catch their eye, Wishes granted, more than you can measure; I'll be beside you should you fall, Just go to sleep now, close your eyes.

(K. Grimwood/E. Idlet)
Close your eyes, and I’ll sing you a song,
Lullaby, sleep until dawn.
The cricket’s serenade echoes softly through the night.
The stars are on the lake, and the moon is shining bright.
Don’t worry, I’ll leave the light on in the hall;
Just go to sleep now, close your eyes.
Close your eyes, listen to my song,
Lullaby, sleep until the dawn.
The birds are in their nest, and the cows are in the barn,
The covers on your bed will keep you safe and warm;
Don’t worry, I’ll be beside you should you call,
Just go to sleep now, close your eyes.
Dragons in the sky,
Flying with their golden treasure,
If you catch their eye,
Wishes granted, more than you can measure;
I’ll be beside you should you fall,
Just go to sleep now, close your eyes.
The cricket’s serenade echoes softly through the night.
The stars are on the lake, and the moon is shining bright.
Don’t worry, I’ll leave the light on in the hall;
Just go to sleep now, close your eyes.
Just go to sleep now, close your eyes.

You’ll find video of some of these on the web. Hope you enjoy their music as much as we have!

Gotta say, I am happy for your children that you love the music they love. It is so important for them to see you enjoy it. Some shameless self-promtion here, you can find all the music I recommended above and LOT more kids musical stuff (including child-safe musical instruments, on my website, http://www.Littlelovees.com. I am a former music and movement specialist for young children, now retired, and will only carry the things I personally approve of. NONE of that annoying fake voice music! <em>Author comment:</em><strong> We have a couple Putumayo disks too and LOVE them.

The day she learns the controls.... well... I might change my opinion then.
