I will have to check this out! I have 4 little scientists running around the house, so more songs are always welcome.
The wee ones love "Here Comes Science" by They Might Be Giants (which I recommend, it's great fun). I did a quick search of your blog to make sure you hadn't already written about it - the only mention I saw was by a commenter, so I figured it was safe to bring up again. The songs aren't always completely correct (one song actually corrects another song), but they're fun. One of my favoutites is Put it to the Test, which encourages experimentation (the video is pretty silly (and kids love silly videos), but the lyrics are great).
Monty Harper is cool. He was a student of my adviser before I started grad school. His song "Topologically Speaking" was written while Monty was still studying topology. Neat song.
