Miscellany
Apparently everyone likes to share their favourite artists and albums.
We know, a quirky movie star picking out albums for his newborn daughter to hear is pretty precious. And Cynthia’s need to share her love of Neil Finn with her kids really resonated with you. We all look forward to whatever gem Beth pulls out for her kid-friendly music picks. And really, how great is a Jason Collett or Dan Zanes-curated playlist? We love us some good tunes here at Bunch HQ and apparently, so do you. Here’s what you said about sharing music with your kids:
Laura said: Lots of Beatles, Neil Young and Bob Marley in our house!
Jennifer said: I’ve tried to get my daughter to listen to Dylan but she refuses- good thing she wasn’t a boy because her name was going to BE Dylan! She loves the Beatles and the Stones though 
she mostly listens to the Glee versions of songs but I try my best to introduce the original artists whenever I can. Read more...
