A Great Idea!


Have you seen this? It is called Rockabye Baby and they are Rock Lullaby CD’s that “transform timeless rock songs into beautiful instrumental lullabies, sending your little one to a slumberland of sweet dreams.”

I am sure someone has blogged about this before but I just came across these the other night while I was looking for a gift to give my cousin’s soon to be 1 year old daughter! I think these are amazing and such a great idea. I have listened to a few…Metallica is VERY good! Infact I want to get these…..FOR ME!!!

Check out the link above to see what is available, they seem to run between $15-$17 depending on where you buy them. These are the ones I want! Seriously…I could fall asleep listening to these at night easily!!!

Metallica
The Ramones
Pink Floyd
Led Zeppelin
Radiohead
Nirvana
The Beatles

AC/DC
