The best dad and baby sing along song ... in the world ever!

If you're not into singing to your baby or with your child (which is actually a really good thing to do but let's not go into this ...) you WILL appreciate the following song which I think has got to be the best dad and baby sing along song in the history of the world (ever)!

Words you need to know to sing along:

Dad: Mahnah Mahnah
Baby/kid: Do doo be-do-do
Dad: Mahnah Mahnah
Baby/kid: Do do-do do
Dad: Mahnah Mahnah
Baby/kid: Do doo be-do-do be-do-do be-do-do be-do-do-doodle do do do-doo do!

You can also switch roles if you like ... play the following to your baby/child and see what happens:

Did you know?

Most people know this song from the Muppets but it was actually written by Piero Umiliani (his version was called "Mah Nà Mah Nà"). It originally appeared in the Italian film Sweden: Heaven and Hell. There's a whole lot more trivia to this song ... check out Wikipedia if you must know.

Meanwhile - happy mahnah mahnah-ing with your little one. I'd challenge anyone to find a song that beats this one as the ultimate dad-baby-sing-along song!
