Top 10 Songs I Dance to with my Daughters

Remember this Public Service Announcement?  My wife Kristen used to always say this could have been me (I did too).

Dancing with our daughters is one of the most fun things to do as a Dad, especially when they are young.  I can honestly say that I’ve taught my oldest, Mary Grace, several dance moves like the Pretzel performed in famous dance call The Shag, the state dance of South Carolina.

I’ve already started the ritual with my youngest, Caroline, as well. 

Below are the top 10 songs (in random order) my girls like to dance with their daddy to:

10. Imma Be -  Black Eyed Peas

9. Undo It  – Carrie Underwoood

8. Dive In – Dave Matthews Band

7. This Town – OAR

6. Speed of Sound – Coldplay

5. Empire State of Mind – Jay Z

4. Because of You – Kelly Clarkson & Reba McIntyre (MG really likes this for some reason)

3. Single Ladies – Beyonce

2. Whatever it is – Zac Brown Band

1. Live Like We’re Dying – Kris Allen

Ok guys… I manned up and admitted it.  You should too.  Am I missing any good songs?

    Really, pretty much anything by the Black Eyed Peas is a hit in this house. As is (gulp) Miley Cyrus’s “Party in the USA”. Again, it’s usually my 3 year-old or 6 year-old that’s picking.

    No judgement…same here.

    Agreed. But do your girls know how to “Dougie”?

    Just taught my daughter last night: Cali Swag District – “Teach Me How to Dougie” (CLEAN version) don’t mess up and play the explicit lyrics!!! Child Services will be knocking at your door.

    Must admit…have no idea what “Dougie” is….must google it.
