My husband and his friend will be the DJ's at a Mother/Son dance in a couple of weeks and are looking for some suggestions. They actually have a pretty good list going, but they want to make sure they have lots of songs on their computer in case someone requests something.
What are some good songs you would play at a Mother/Son dance?
ETA - The dance is mostly grade school kids - Kindergarten through 6th grade
What age kids are you talking about?
The Chicken Dance and Hokey Pokey are family favorites - and yes - I loved dancing them at my own wedding.
