Hi readers,

Lots of new music for kids has come out over the past few months, so here are a few new albums for you to listen to!

Dog On The Floor by Raffi

Raffi has a new album with 15 fun songs. Some of them are about his pet dog, Luna, including “Walking the Dog”, “Luna’s Song”, and the song the album is named after, “Dog on the Floor”. You can even see a picture of Luna on the album’s cover! I like the song “Walking the Dog” because it’s a fun upbeat song you could dance or, well, walk a dog to!

Five Little Oysters by Sukey Molloy

This album takes songs you may know and adds silly and interesting changes! Songs like “It’s Raining, It’s Pouring” have new lyrics, like “it’s raining, it’s pouring, the old man’s cow is snoring” so you have to listen carefully to hear the changes.

I Am Your Food by Gunnar Madsen

The most recent album by Gunnar Madsen is all about food! Each song is about a different food; from things you’d like to eat, like pancakes, to silly things like worms. Make sure to have a snack lined up while listening – it could make you hungry!

Ready or Not by The Not-Its

This new album by The Not-Its has songs about all sorts of things, like playing hide-and-seek, finding bugs, and wondering what to be when you grow up. Each song is in the band’s “kindie rock” style, like indie rock for kids.

I hope this helped you find some new music to listen to! If there’s any songs or albums you’d like to share make sure to comment them below.

Have a good weekend!
