What Beatle song would a ten year old like more than Yellow Sub.

My two youngest chose JL/POB as the standard bedtime listening when
they were around that age.

All Together Now..
Except you have to sing over the 'can I take my friend to bed' part,
substituting 'Can I take my friend some BREAD'. It worked with our's..
They never got pregnant as kids or made anyone else so. More than most
of you can claim, I'm sure...

What about a 6-year-old? My 6-year-old twins are both Beatles
lovers. They liked Yellow Submarine when they were 3, but now it's
one of their least favorites. Their favorite album is "Revolver"
with the exception of that song. They also like "I Am the Walrus" a
lot.

Tough call. Some ten year olds are not yet into current pop music, and
might therefore not yet be "too cool" to enjoy any of the more catchy
and accessible Beatles songs, from "Please Please Me" to "Octopus's
Garden". But then, my daughter and her friends are 11 and they're
already into Green Day, Shakira, Bowling for Soup, and Fall Out Boy...

I was more into music *lessons* when I was 10...the part which
recorded music played in my life was almost negligible.

Sounds like somebody's got a case of the Mondays...on Wednesday.
I did not take music lessons "under duress" -- I wanted them. As it
turns out, I wish I had started them earlier. I might have had
"prodigy" potential.

which does not necessarily mean that they wouldn't like the Beatles (my
daughter does like numerous Beatles songs, although that might be
because she became familiar with them when she was younger)... but at
that stage in the development of musical taste, there is the tendency to
find any pre-New Wave music unbearably corny.

I could see how that could happen if all the kids are exposed to are the
amped-up, hyped-up sounds of top 40 radio. With all the CD players and iPods in
cars these days, seems like the perfect opportunity for parents to make sure
that their captive audiences are exposed to a more diverse musical menu.
