Kids Music Best on Spotify

Music about music for young listeners — songs that introduce instruments, rhythm, musical styles, history and the people who helped shape the music.

Music Discovery for Young Minds

Building Better Listeners.

Real music. Real stories. Young minds.

Kids Music Best introduces children to the artists, instruments, rhythms, history and ideas behind generations of great music through original songs made for young listeners.

Children's Music Can Do More.

Kids Music Best isn't about dumbing music down for children. It's about opening music up for them — early enough that curiosity, listening and musical understanding can grow alongside them.

Hear the Music

Children discover blues, rock, jazz, Americana, soul, classical music, rhythm, harmony and much more through age-accessible original songs.

Meet the Artists

Discover the musicians who helped shape generations of music and learn what made their contributions important — not simply that they became famous.

Learn to Listen

Songs introduce instruments, improvisation, groove, dynamics, harmony, rhythm, collaboration and musical history without feeling like a classroom lesson.
