That baby video was made almost 12 years ago, so the kids would be in middle school. I wonder if they still like the song? I know someone who made a mix-tape of peaceful music to help her calm down and sleep during pregnancy. She played it for the baby at bedtime. Every night. Even when the kid was a teenager, she could play the CD in the car, and the kid would be asleep in less than 5 minutes.
