Summer Fun with Rockabye Baby: That Long Flight

The worst tantrums seem to erupt from our little tots at the most unfortunate times: in restaurants, during weddings, and right at bedtime, to name a few. But among the most stressful scenarios for a parent -- and irritating for others-- is a tantrum during that inescapable, long flight. The only place to escape the cramped seating is the cramped bathroom, and you already used the backup animal crackers when your child threw a little fit about not being able to lick the airport windows. A six-hour trip from LA to NY would not be pretty without a little Rockabye Baby in tow to tame your little ball of energy. Here are some of our favorite albums to help the calm kick in. Lullaby Renditions of Metallica - The "Sandman" is more than welcome on this flight! Lullaby Renditions of Van Halen - Listen to these dreamy lullabies "And the Cradle Will Rock." Lullaby Renditions of Weezer - We're here to prove Mommy and Daddy's vision of a peaceful flight isn't "Only in Dreams." .
