Twinkle, twinkle... anymore cure-all songs???

[Beth&Archer]

Anyone else find that singing Twinkle Twinkle to their LO to be the best cure all??? I find when Archer is colicky and screaming if I can catch his eye and sing twinkle twinkle over (and over and over and over!) again it works brilliantly!! Sounds mad but it really works... I've tried other songs but none of them work!!!

Has anyone got any different cure all songs? Or anyone else find that Twinkle Twinkle really works or am I just a mad, sleep deprived person??

Scissor Sisters 'don't feel like dancing' works for us! That or staring at my giant Kylie picture

Jack loves Twinkle Twinkle as well, it stops him in his tracks

He also loves Pink 'get the party started' only when i sing it though

For us, the cure all songs are "how much is that doggie in the window" and "my bonnie lies over the ocean". I teach little ones so I have plenty of songs in Irish to sing to Naomi too! But she prefers the two already mentioned.

Also likes "horsie horsie don't you stop" and "clap hands till Mama comes home".

My God I'm turning into my Mom!
