about

Funky baby!
It’s so much fun bouncing Baby, singing and dancing together.
Babies love to sing this up-beat song!
Great musicians playing some hot jazz.

The story behind the song

Baby-Boo is the perfect song for dancing, singing and bouncing with your little one!

Babies love to bop, move and bounce. They just can’t keep still, and love to improvise with their favourite words, babbling and singing with joy.

Jo Steel wrote this song for parents to bounce baby in their laps and sing the sounds that Baby makes. Inspired by emerging language from the babies in Ukubebe Baby music classes.

Sassy brass, smooth guitar and bass make this song pop.

Sing the song in parts with friends and family, with each verse complimenting the others! Ba-bah-baby, Dad-da-daddy and Mum-mum-mummy.
