Parents of 5/6/7 year olds can you help...

...with my playlist?

Party on Saturday for my 6 year old. Lots of kids and parents coming and I need a playlist. I'm staring a Spotify and completely blank.

I want more dancey songs than disney if that makes sense.

What songs do your kids like at this age?

"It's raining tacos" - DS1 (6) sings this all the time.
"Under pressure" from Encanto
"Eye of the Tiger"

Ooh if they are not too "cool" for it yet the stick song from Hey Dugee!

My 7 year old loves any kind of music but especially shotgun by george ezra and we don't talk about bruno from encanto.

I was going to suggest encanto and dance monkey. My daughter also loves the raining tacos song the poster above mentioned. I do not! Haha. Early 00s student nightclub music seems to go down well too (s-club 7 still seems quite popular). JoJo Siwa as well.

Encanto songs, ed Sheeran, George Ezra

Taylor swift, anything trolls or sing/sing 2, Katy Perry. Also as someone mentioned search for the minecraft songs - there’s one with minecraft lyrics to the shape of you that they seem to go nuts for.
also dance monkey!!

Oh and mine also love the fecking ketchup song and the cheeky girls but the parents may not love you for introducing these 😂

I've a nearly 6 years old and a just turned 8 year old ( both girls)
• Shot gun
• songs by descendents
• barbie girl
• songs by zombies
•jojo siwa
• pink so what
• Katy Perry roar
• gangnan style
• I'm blue (thanks just dance 🙄)
They love lots of song from just dance tbh

All the above plus a bunch of Beastie Boys

Do any 80s babies here remember the 'superman' song

All these suggestions seem so much more sophisticated

My 6 year old listens to the bloody Sonic song on repeat. Couldn't tell you who the rappers are or indeed what it's about but I trust it's suitable for him.

Lolling here at playing songs about drug taking at a kids party 😂 not that they would understand (I hope)

Pompeii by Bastille
i just wanna shine by fitz and the tantrums
dynamite by BTS
thats what I want by lil naz x
high hopes by panic! At the disco
the chicken wing song 🙄

and lots of the others mentioned already by PPs

Nikki Minaj Superbass

On and Little Mix

Just play kidz bop kids albums. They are all popular pop songs above but sung by older kids and actually quite good! Plus no swearing or inappropriate lyrics

Over nursery rhymes by 5?! Gosh people expect children to grow up fast!!
My almost 7 year old loves them. Great for littles under 8.
