Music was a very important part of my childhood. I have fond memories of my dad letting me into his world of the Beatles and the Stones and all of the other ’60s music that inspired him. It inspired me, too. I want to give that experience to my kids, and as far as I’m concerned, it’s never too early to start.

The iCrib is a convenient way to get that early jump. As a proud member of the iPod generation, I have options for spreading my love of music that my dad could only dream of back then. While it would have been ridiculous, not to mention ridiculously dangerous, for my dad to plug in a turntable and speakers in my crib, with this nifty little gadget there’s no problem. You just attach it to the crib, pop in your iPod, and you’re all set. I recommend starting with the Beatles.
