Baby Lullaby Songs to You

About Baby Lullaby Songs to You

"Frère Jacques"
Sleep like a baby? Ha! As parents know all too well, babies — and little ones in general — aren’t always good at getting (and staying) asleep. But an old-fashioned remedy can help: the lullaby.

There’s a reason parents have turned to lullabies for centuries — they work. And there’s science to back that up. Incorporating soothing songs into your little one’s bedtime routine may result in better sleep for babies (and an improved “maternal mood,” too), according to one study.

Nearly any song — regardless of lyrics and melody — can be re-imagined as a lullaby. Still, some songs seem to particularly lend themselves to sending baby off to dreamland.
