totalcomfort Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I was listening to a little zz top when 4yr old daughter comes and says " daddy I want to listen to my music" . So now I have a pair of jamborees playing wheels on the bus, ring around the rosey, this old man, and other top 10 hits for 4yr old children!! Hope my jamborees don't revolt and take off running!, LOL!!! Looks like it is time to put her a system together for her room. Maybe some small book shelf speakers to start. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Her own little system. Just as we had our own little portable record players as kids. Make sure she understands the responsibility. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask a fish head anything you want too... They wont answer, they can't talk! A baby fell out of the window! You think that it's head would be split! But luck was with it that morning... It fell in a barel of shaving cream, feel nice and clean, shave every day and you'll always feel keen! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was like Dante's disco inferno---you can't stop the music! 1st cousin had a Disney record player that had a screen, you put a strip with pictures in from the top and the pictures advanced as the records told stories.

teaman Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 I had little Yamaha DVD/receivers with a 5.1 Infinity set up in each of my daughters rooms since they were four or five. Now I upgraded both rooms to Panasonic SA-HE200 receivers and Klipsch SB3's and SB-2's and KV-2 centers. Still running Yamaha and Infinity subs but it sounds pretty good in the rooms for them. Nothing wrong with that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wvu80 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 Looks like it is time to put her a system together for her room. Maybe some small book shelf speakers to start. I gently, and respectfully disagree. At four years-old, I think she needs to sit on daddy's lap a while longer, while you both listen to the Jamborees and sing "the wheels on the bus go round and round." And don't forget the daddy's all-time favorite hit, "itsy bitsy spider, and don't forget to tickle her during the Big Ending. It's a classic. Make sure your wife takes pictures. A time will come, sooner than you think, that she won't want to be seen with you at the mall. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtimer Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 (edited) When I was four years old, my dad was at work during the day training Vietnamese helicopter pilots and we had a little record player which we had all day to enjoy. Let the kid have her music. when she wants, not just when dad comes home. Edited July 23, 2015 by oldtimer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JL Sargent Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 (edited) Oldtimer, did dad ever train you to fly one? On the kid music, do both. Listen at the Jamborees and her own devices. Edited July 23, 2015 by JL Sargent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A time will come, sooner than you think, that she won't want to be seen with you at the mall. I absolutely agree to the fullest with this! My absolute favorite time with my daughter was when she was 4, she turns 16 tomorrow on Friday. At 4, when I would have to go to work, she would hug me and pull at my clothes as I was leaving and say; "Daddy, you don't go to work, you stay home!" Used to really tug at my heart strings! This is as good as it gets my friend, don't waste this time, cherish it, because it will be gone forever before you know what happened!

derrickdj1 Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 (edited) My Grandchild dose me the same way. I usually accommodate her and play what she likes or watch kids stuff on Netflix. It is good bonding time. The day will come when she will not be interested much in what you like.

comay Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 She’s 5 and he’s 2. Usually, weekend mornings are music time and they each get to pick a record to listen to. 2 out of the last 10 music purchases were by Yo Gabba Gabba. I even take her to the record shop with me. I’d listen to “The Wheels on the Bus” until the wheels fall off. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frzninvt Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 (edited) Started my daughter young as I had residual gear from buying, selling, and trading. She now has a much deeper appreciation of music and quality sound. She is 13 and has her own Klipsch HT in her room with KG2's, KG2.2, KG1's and a KSW-50 with an entry level Onkyo receiver. She obviously prefers the living room system and can run all its functions like a pro. Watched Pitch Perfect with her at blistering levels during some of the performance scenes it was life like to say the least.

totalcomfort Posted July 23, 2015 Author Share Posted July 23, 2015 Kids pick this stuff up so quick now. Baby girl already knows how to run most of "my" system by remote. Finished off the night with a jam session of frosty the snowman lol. Good quality time with my daughter, we actually talked about woofers and tweeters and what they do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
