Growing up song for kids โ€” "You're a Big Man!" cover art by Snuggle Bunch

You’re a Big Man!

About This Song

An experimental jazz track sampling and remixing an improvised acapella recording. incorporating horns and a live jazzy feel to a lighthearted melody about my son growing up. “You’re a Big Man!” started as a simple voice memo ( a proud dad moment caught on tape ) and evolved into a horn-driven, jazz-flavored celebration of watching your little one hit those big milestones.

With its warm brass arrangements and easygoing groove, this track captures the bittersweet joy of a toddler who’s suddenly not so little anymore. This track is for every new word, every confident step, every “I do it myself!”

  • I Want To Have Fun!

    The title track and high-energy opener of Snuggle Bunch’s second album. “I Want To Have Fun!” is a family hip hop anthem that captures the first-thing-in-the-morning burst of energy every parent knows too well. Full lyrics and streaming links inside.

  • Peanut Butter Sandwich!

    Mom made something amazing for dinner. Dad put together a beautiful plate. And yet, the kid wants a peanut butter sandwich. Every family has that one meal their kid will always choose over whatever you actually cooked, and “Peanut Butter Sandwich!” turns that standoff into a groove. No negotiations, no bribes, just pure loyalty to their favorite food no matter what else is on offer.

  • I’m a Little Teapot!

    Your kids already know the words. They’ve been doing the handle-and-spout dance since daycare. So we took “I’m a Little Teapot” and flipped it to a hip hop bop it’s been waiting for. We kept the classic verses and added on our spin about heating up water for mommies and daddies, and how a fresh cup of tea helps us parents! Let’s be real, sometimes a teapot song is for the grown-ups too.

  • Teamwork (Makes the Dream Work!)

    Some things are just better together! Building a block tower, cleaning up toys, or playing outside on a nice day. “Teamwork (Makes the Dream Work!)” is a song about cooperation and collaboration. It’s the kind of song that gets stuck in your head for a reason: it’s a good message! We’re greater than the sum of our parts, and this track makes sure your kids know it.

  • Little Man Dance

    A new experimental jazz tune with Jazz Animals, inspired entirely by this adorable squat dance my one year old does whenever he hears a song he likes! A big fan of the sound of a trumpet, this one takes a similar sample-based approach to You’re a Big Man!, but with a slightly more laid-back vibe.
