Ok, Does anyone have a favorite lullaby from when they were little or that they used to sing to their babies?
I usually sing "You are my sunshine" to my kids.

"you are my sunshine" was one of my favorites to sing to my kids as well.
I also sang a lot of the old hymns to them. . . "Amazing Grace" "Jesus Loves Me" "In the Garden" etc. soft and quiet songs that would calm them down.
My mom took Latin when she was in HS-- she learned a Latin song that she sang to us even when we were grown (I can remember her sitting by my hospital bed, singing it to me when I was in ICU after surgery and they weren't sure I'd live) I can sing it to my kids, but I have no idea what it means. Mom says it's a song about the stars and heaven.

Carolyn, technically, I don't think "you are my sunshine" is either. And that is my favorite one! lol

Hush Little Baby was for Hayley. I wrote mine before I read the others, I see Car liked that one as well.
I like Kumbyah, sorry can't spell it lol.
Also, Molly Malone.
The Wiggles have a nice one called "hush a bye your bear".
