Aerosmith "Mama Kin"

Still trolling for good Mom songs for Mother's Day weekend . . .

This week my 4 year old figured out how to get the iPod in the dock and make it start playing.

But she doesn't know how to pick a playlist, and she can't read so she couldn't pick a song if she wanted.

Instead, it just started playing all the songs, alphabetically by artist.

After one ABBA song (yes, I have "Waterloo" on there), we got into a long stretch of 70s Aerosmith.

Bizarrely, when "Mama Kin" came on, she said, "Oh, this is good cleaning music!" and went about picking up some of the dirty laundry that had amassed near (but not in) the hamper.

I'd never thought of it as good cleaning music, per se, but who am I to argue with a pre-schooler who wants to shape up the house?


Hear the song on Youtube.
