Must List
Make big bucks while rocking GL's babysitting playlist
“Under the Sea” – Samuel E. Wright
A song that will let ya get creative. Have the kids pretend to be their favorite sea creature for the duration of the song and see which can make the best under water impression.
“Jambo” – Ella Jenkins
Jambo is Swahili for “hello” and although you may not want to hear this song 50 times over, there is a bonus. This call and response song, which teaches kids some basics of the African tongue, will score you some serious brownie points with the ’rents.
“Surfin’ U.S.A” – The Beach Boys
Even if you are nowhere near water, you can be on the waves with this song. Show off your surfing moves!
“Hawaiian Rollercoaster Ride” – Kamehameha Children’s Chorus and Mark Keali’i Ho’omalu
Another summer Disney fave! You’ll have both you and the kids laughing trying to sing along to this Hawaiian tune from Lilo & Stitch.
“Whip My Hair” – Willow Smith
The perfect song to stage a dance party for the tots. Have them see who can come up with the craziest way to whip their hair.
“Happy Working Song” – Amy Adams
This is about 100 times better than reciting that Barney cleaning song again—and you’ll get to stretch your singing chops, too!
