The Ultimate Christmas and Hanukkah Playlist for Kids

Best Christmas and Hanukkah Music for Kids

Get into the holiday spirit and sing and dance to the ultimate holiday playlist for kids. These CD's and MP3 downloads eschew holiday music cliché without losing the spirit of the season. 

This catalog of holiday music basically falls into two categories: 1) classics, renditions of which are sung by a gazillion musical artists, and 2) relatively new and unique songs on their way to becoming classics. Both are included and are not in preferential order. Enjoy!
