Dance contest

I've been rummaging through my old CDs lately and playing lots of music for Little Omi. She will wiggle to just about any tune and can really cut a rug. On Tuesday we were all about Carole King's Tapestry. Wednesday found us rocking to Simon & Garfunkel's Concert in Central Park. Today I noticed a couple of albums I haven't listened to in ages, both by The Squirrel Nut Zippers. Remember them, from the late 90s swing-craze days? They had one huge hit ("Hot"), then faded into obscurity as the retro-swing style dwindled.

Well, let me tell you, this is music you can't help but boogie to; Omi-chan was even dancing in her booster seat through lunch. So, if you own these CDs, but just haven't dragged them out in forever because you initially listened them to death or they remind you of that one bad boyfriend you had in the 90s (or the guy you dated while you and said boyfriend were "on a break"), fear not! You can create new memories with your little ones while dancing like crazy fiends in your living room. Oatmeal-container drum & wooden spoon drumstick: optional.
