The Gift that Keeps on Giving

It keeps on giving me a headache!

When we were shopping for Darcy's stocking gifts we found these CD"s at Zellers that were 2/$5. They had all kinds of kids' music, so we picked two up.

What we didn't anticipate is how much she'd LOVE these CD's, or exactly how unbearable they'd become to us in a matter of minutes.

The CD's feature a variety of popular kids' songs, like "Do You Know the Muffin Man?", "Pop Goes the Weasel" and "Hickory, Dickory, Dock" among other choice favourites. They've got split tracks on the CD's, so all of the songs play through once, then they go through them all again so you can use the split track feature for sing-alongs. We don't do that, but it does make it seem like you're listening to the same songs over and over and over and over...

When you try to put on the news or another type of music for even a few minutes you get bombarded with, "Can I listen to my music please?"

I won't be in a hurry to buy her any more CD's!

I know the feeling! Kolina's been listening to "Bad Medicine" by Bon Jovi endlessly. I'm getting PRETTY sick of it!

We've got the same with "Sunday School" songs. They play through once then start over again.

They're in the car, and Laura usually only gets them on the way home from things at night, if we're out.

We do have other ones with the types of songs you mentioned, but they don't seem to come out much anymore, thank goodness!
