There are two big reasons to celebrate today:

1. We got to talk to Raffi, famous children's singer/entertainer for today's Rock & Roll Lifestyle.

2. Morning show sub host Sean McPherson's baby is nearly here!

So for today's Coffee Break, what songs do you want to hear that mention children and youth in the lyrics?

And don't forget, Rock The Cradle is this Sunday!
