An Answer for Every Crisis

“Old McDonald Had a Farm” fixes everything at our house, everything.


Problem: The baby girl is rambunctious during a feeding. Solution: Sing Old McDonald.

Need to cut the baby girl’s nails and she won’t sit still? Sing Old McDonald.

The baby girl is crying in her car seat…sing Old McDonald.

When she is getting tired of the stroller and starts bucking, sing her Old McDonald and all is well.

Just about any time that something goes wrong for the baby girl it can be solved with one single song. It’s almost magical. The best thing about the song is that Old McDonald can have anything you want on the farm, a phone that rings, a door that creaks, a faucet that drips, the possibilities are endless, therefore the song can never get old (or so that’s what I tell myself as I sing it multiple times a day).
