For the longest time we would listen to the kids cds when we were in the car, but that got boring after a while. Now we swtich between my stations, radio disneyCDs, and the ipod. MY DD are 5 and 3 years old now.

I like to start off with my music but we have a long car ride to work(~1 hr-she goes to daycare in a building where I work) so if she gets cranky I turn this sesame street characters singing kids songs cd and I hear not a peep! She usually sleeps most of the way home so I can listen to regular music. I really am amazed at how she can tell which is kiddy music and which is not. She is 11 months.

ETA: I have to get more kiddy cd's for more variety and I hope the sesame street one is not the only one she likes!

Enjoy your music now as when they get older you never get to hear what you want anymore (especially when they are old enough to sit in the front seat).

We listen to our stations, depending on whose driving it's different music. When I drive DS hears hip-hop and pop stations, when DH drives it's classic rock. I think DS likes mine best.

We have a couple of DS's CDs in the car in case he throws a fit.

ditto. sometimes he's fine with my music, but he'll start to fuss for a moment I'll switch to his CD. Then he's happy again.
There's no way he lets me listen to the news at all anymore either. I like 1010 to get some updates on news or traffic. Kind of glad this daycare is closer to the house now b/c he's not in the car with me as long. Drop him off and sometimes I'm still listening to his CD singing along and realize he's not there so I can change it Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: When you in the car with your children Radio question

I try listening to my music stations (or Howard) for a while and then if DD gets antsy or doesn't fall asleep I put on her music... the Enchanted CD - which she loves!

EXACTLY the same with us. I have Eminem in now (have for a while now) and when DH and i are together it's usually angry white boy music Chat Icon

She's still young though (that's my excuse)
