The library became my best friend as we could check out lullaby CDs for 21 days! Plus we could renew them up to 3 times, as long as no one was on the waitlist, which for lullaby CDs, was never, so I was able to hold onto CDs for a total of 63 days, though I usually returned them before then. It was nice as we were able to check out multiple CDs at a time so we could switch them every few days, as trust me, you will get sick of hearing the same first few songs over and over again.
Some CDs were so bad, I didn't even keep them for 21 days! I didn't think there could be bad lullaby CDs, but some of them actually had tunes that were a bit too fast or upbeat and distracted our daughter, rather than relaxed her. We found a Michael Jackson Lullaby CD, which we thought was awesome, but she was not a fan! They were basically instrumentals of his songs, but they forgot to slow the tempo down, so it wasn't very relaxing.
I have been through my fair share of CDs and so I thought I would share which ones are our favorites so you can avoid so many trips to your library, or know which ones are worth buying so you always have a few on hand!
These aren't in any particular order, you can click on the images to find the CD on Amazon! I will note that all of these are instrumental, there is no singing.
Also, the Star Wars lullaby CD does have one fast song which is the "The Cantina Band." It didn't bother our girl, probably because it's further down on the list so she's already asleep by then, but it may bother your baby. I love all the other songs on it though so had to include it!
You can also find these and more in my Amazon Shop!
