Inspired By
This contest theme was inspired by the Rockabye Baby! albums that I recently discovered and immediately loved! The lullaby renditions of punk, metal, classic rock songs by some of my all-time favorite bands make a cool gift idea for first-time parents, new babies and hip families.What a fun way for moms and dads to share their musical interests in a totally kid-friendly way. The songs are sweet enough for a sleeping baby, but won't bore their parents to death either.
Visit the Rockabye Baby! music store to search for your favorite band
. There are over 25 bands to choose from including, The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Green Day, No Doubt, Aerosmith, Nirvana, The Cure, Metallica, U2, Tool and more! Rock My Bento Supplies
