Most of us are embarrassed to sing in public but how many of us sang lullabies to our kids?
My mother used to sing to me but it was really the songs my dad sang to me (and he was no singer) which I remember. I passed those on to my children (or, at least, I sang them) but I don't know if they remember them the way I do. They have never said!
My mother used to sing 'Rock-a-bye Baby' (but to a different tune to the one most Americans seem to know - and it always grates when I hear the other tune!)
What lullabies do you remember and do you think that music (whether it's sung or played) is a very calming thing for little children?
