I received a few emails asking what my playlist would be for the party. I have numerous playlists for every occasion. I decided to list a few of the playlists I have created for different age levels and types of parties. As an added bonus if you buy one of the many sound effects albums available you can add a few of those sounds between each track. As with all things, all the content may not be suitable for kids of all ages, so be sure to preview the songs first to be sure. Enjoy.
