Did you sing any Beatles songs when you were a kid?
National Public Radiorecently did a report onwhy toddlers like the Beatles so much.
(Funniest line: Beatlemania returns to America this week.
According to Dr. Deforia Lane,
The Beatles have repetition, predictability and rhythm.
And in certain cases, it literally paints a picture for children.
And quite frankly, the beat makes you want to move.
Heeeeey…sounds like Super Simple Songs characteristics to me!
(And we thought of all that first, right?)
The Bath Song paints a picture for the children, and you cant sit still during The Pinocchio.
(Linksfor the rest of the songs.)
I like Bob Dylan, but I dont have my kids sing his songs.
(Another terrifically helpful Beatles/Super Simple Songs characteristic:articulation.)
I didnt realize the Beatles higher voice range is also an appealing characteristic for toddlers.
The short report is wellworth a listen.
To answer my first question above, I dont remember singing the Beatles as a kid.
Not a single one.
I dont know why!
Oh, who is Dr. Lane?
I didnt know this program existed.
How cool is that?
We should organize a field trip, yes?
