Monkey loves music. has done since he was tiny. You can see him singing to music in his head sometimes as he dances along to ‘wind the bobbin up’ or ‘twinkle twinkle’ doing all the hand movements!
He has quite particular tastes though and is happy to let me know when he doesn’t like the music that is on in the car or something – generally by lots of whining. Heaven forbid if we have the radio on and I don’t realise that a song has finished and there’s talking on instead, he gets very stroppy!
But what I love his the way he reacts to a song he likes coming on the radio. They are very rarely songs he has heard before, and they do vary, but he likes music with a strong beat, particularly a good rock song. As a lover of rock music it makes me dead happy and proud, when a heavy guitar rift comes on the radio and I hear my little boy behind me clapping and shouting ‘yeeeeeaaaaahhh’ haha. So daft but I love it, so that’s my ordinary moment this week!
Not the best pic I’m afraid, hubby was driving on this day and monkey was moving a lot, but, you get the idea 🙂
Aww bless! My two have always likes a good beat too – Elms’s absolute favourite, will sooth her when nothing else will do is The Buggles, Video Killed the Radio Star – it’s hilarious how quickly it works when all the Twinkle twinkles in the world crash and burn!
haha aww I love that, great choice 🙂 xx
So very lovely! My little M also loves listening to the music in the car – doesn’t matter what it is.
It’s so cute isn’t it? Lovely to see 🙂 xx
Hahaha, we also love listening to music in the car, we went through a stage where we had to listen to the In The Night Garden CD which was so annoying, but if it pleases them then why not!
Ha ha oh I know what you mean, we had a nursery cd on repeat for months, now it’s on occasionally. Like you, say, whatever makes them happy! xx
Oh yes, I love this, too! Boo likes ‘her music’ on in the car, but when I rebel and put mine on or the radio, I love seeing Little Man dance along to it 🙂
haha brilliant, definitely nice to get a bit of variety sometimes! 🙂 xx
So cute! My baby boy loves music too, he’s quite partial to ‘Old MacDonald’, I wonder what he’ll enjoy when he’s older x
Aww bless him! Yeah it’ll be interesting to see what their music tastes are as they grow! xx
Haha my little girl loves the radio and always orders me to put songs back on that I hate! All she will listen to at the moment though is the Frozen soundtrack which is starting to drive me insane! x
haha oh dear, they are funny aren’t they? Great to see their personalities coming through though! xx
Ahhhh i love this!! Such a wonderful way to see the development of his personality with his own taste in music!!
It is lovely, I love him becoming his own little person! xx
How cute! My big girl loves a good dance in the car, and the little one has just started ‘dancing’ too. But I must admit ours is more to One Direction than rock. 😉
Thanks haha it’s great isn’t it? Ha ha well nothing wrong with that, perhaps I should have mentioned that for ages his favourite song was by Olly Murs! 🙂 xx
I love this! My ones love a good song or two in the car too. I think there’s something about confined spaces that make people feel safe to rock out!
Thanks haha I think you may be right! xx
