3.5.10

Victoria's Just Saying moment

Working with children generally gives me the excuse to divulge in entertainment that classy adults toss aside as "child's play". However, upon the switching of our lullaby music to a more "hippy cd that doesn't skip" I am rethinking my love for children's things.

"And the chocolate cat goes cavorting around,
From this leafy limb unto that.
Sugarplums tumble, of course, to the ground...
HURRAH! For the chocolate cat!"

I am sorry, there is nothing about this lullaby that screams anything more than BIZARRE to me. As I sit patting two year olds to "Shut-Eye Town" I am praying that they are not finding themselves caught up in this awkward land of chocolate cats and gingerbread dogs. I am not generally one to be so judgmental, but if I have to put a bet on it, this song sounds more like a drug-trip than an appropriate wish for a child's dreams.

And this has been another one of those posts where the main point was so I could summarize it all by,

"Just sayin'"

(I hoped and prayed to find you a wonderful rendition of this song. This one is a children's choir, but I think you will realize that even they find this song excruciating. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87yI8SV2lic )
