It's hard, right? All this adulting and parenting and still tryna keep the weekend fresh and fun? We know. We get it.
That's why we put together this bumpin' kid-friendly rap playlist -- you can drop the beat and vibe together.
Quick arts education sidebar: Rap evolved to tell the story of oppression, poverty, drug addiction, and gang violence -- the real daily struggles of life in the projects. It's an important musical genre of American's cultural history. But you already knew that.
The topics can be tough on little ears, that's for sure. While many artists tell straight-up truth or cleverly satirize the issues, other artists glamorize gang violence, promote misogyny, and spew homophobia.
But hey -- no worries -- we avoided the most adult tracks in our mix, and chose edited versions to filter the language.
So turn it up and party on, fam.
Our family vacations—as cheap and tiring as they have been—have made my kids empathetic, curious, and open-minded world travelers, and this makes me proud.
Babies are born with curiosity. The best toys tap into that inquisitive spirit—helping them explore the world and build skills and confidence along the way.
The energy and chaos of running around on the playground isn't the break all kids need during the school day. Introverts may do well to have an alternative.
