Shake it off
When my son falls down or gets upset, I remind him to do what Taylor Swift does and Shake it off.
Say what you will about Taylor and pop music, but this song shows she gets the joke. It’s also a good reminder for a little kid that it’s ok to have fun and move on quickly after a spill or some other type of mishap.
Now I know Taylor likes to copyright phrases, and I hope my usage is allowed. (Don’t sue me, TayTay!)
The song doesn’t always help. But even when it doesn’t directly, my son usually still gets distracted by telling me to stop singing. So, score one for me.
Soon enough, he’ll be telling me to stop singing because I’m annoying or embarrassing. But not yet! I’ve still got some time left to Shake it off, oh oh, shake it off!
good advice for everyone. And yep – your son will definitely find your singing annoying one day but he’ll come around eventually 😉
