Baa Baa Black Sheep, Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Rock-a-Bye Baby and the list goes on of so many beautiful and soothing lullabies we sing to our children. Our mom does the same for the tots but she has an entirely different playlist of Indian lullabies! They sound so sweet and innocent in our own language that all three of us have started to sing them to the kids. They bring back the most beautiful memories of our childhood but more importantly they give us a chance to expose our children to our mother tongue and our culture! As the kids become toddlers, they now sing along with us and even to other babies! Here is a list of some of our favorites with the YouTube links. Enjoy!
Lullabies:
Chanda Hai Tu Mera Suraj Hair Tu
Nani Teri Morni Ko Chor Le Gae
