Songs My Kids Wrote

By Kevin Adams

Kids say some pretty silly stuff, and we could all use a little bit of silliness in our lives. I have been writing down some of the goofy, curious, and outrageous things my kids have said over the years. Each month, we will analyze what they said and produce an original song based on their words. These are Songs My Kids Wrote.
