Jonathan Sings For Kids! Circle The Little Kookenhakens!

Jonathan Sings For Kids!


Name a performer who’s better suited to release a children’s album than JONATHAN RICHMAN.


"I guess I have to do EVERYTHING around here!"


While BLOGGER is being a big doo doo head & not updating blog rolls, Jon & I decided to throw our faithful followers a bone, & post something anyway (despite the near certainty that no one will see it!)


I'm posting something I made for my nieces & nephews a long time ago; Jonathan Sings For Kids! because it’s already found an appreciative audience.  I bet some of the folks that regularly visit will like it, too!


The songs that simply COULD NOT be left off are here; Ice Cream Man, My Little Kookenhaken, Hey Little Insect, & I’m A Little Airplane.  There are a few that, while perfect for inclusion, are less obvious; New Teller, Not Yet Three, & When I Dance.  A couple are a bit of a stretch, & the fact that Roadrunner doesn’t involve a cartoon bird dodging a coyote’s homicidal impulses may leave some younger children feeling cheated.


But as always, our comps here at JONKY are fully guaranteed—double your money back!  


What better way to end a post aimed at children than with a dad joke?
