To think I simply can't be the only one here who sings Soft Kitty, Warm Kitty

[HoneyDragon]

To get resident small children to go to sleep?

YABVU. Unless they're sick. Soft kitty is for when you're sick. I thought everyone knew that?

(wonders whether soft kitty will get rid of DD's cough)

Yeah, Soft Kitty is for poorly children only.

We have our own version called "Sausage Boy" (same tune) which 5 yo ds insists on every night.

When he's feeling under par, the 13 y old insists I sing it to him.

Of course your not the only one silly

I sing it to my kitten mostly though

I don't know this kitty song but if gets children to sleep I am learning it.

DS sang it to me when I was sick over Christmas

And the sausage one.

I sing it to DS. He purrs.

No, we sing it - with slight variations - quite a lot. Last night it was 'Soft dinosaur, warm dinosaur...' I am quite the poet.

we've referred to it, but so far refrained from quoting in full...

AndIFeedem, do you think your children's sleep difficulties could be diet-related, by any chance?

Had to sing it to DS 13 on Sunday.

I sing 'soft piggie' to my guinea pig

I sing it to mine to get them to sleep :-) I have the lyrics on a hoody and DD used it to learn to read...

DD1 sings it to me when i'm stressed.

Horsey Horsey is for going to sleep, Soft Kitty is for watching Big Bang.

edam

I get lots of when I post in weaning!

YANBU. I hum it myself in emergency situations.

The words to Sausage Boy stay within the walls of this house!

Haha I am going to go and text her!

Only when they're sick. Although the one year old sang it to me the other night whilst trying to get to sleep at 1am.

why dont i know this song!?
