Real Music for Kids??? PLEASE HELP!!! (soundtrack, cd, single, albums)

The Beatles would definitely be good-I would go with The Beatles 1
Relient K-any album really catchy poppy fun lyrics-their first album has a song about Marily Manson-self titled is their first album.
I grew up on Christian music and when I was ten I hit the Christian punk scene-like Mxpx, Slick Shoes, etc.
I was also a big DC Talk fan back then.
The Zombies-Odyssey and Oracle
Kriss Kross-Totally Krossed out-I liked them when I was six.
The Monkees-Greatist Hits
Beach Boys-Endless Summer

Hopefully this helps you out some.

Try like Drake Bell and Jesse Mccartney, they are on the kid channels. Hilary Duff and stuff like that too.

Definitely

Oldies tend to be a bit more tame lyrically and have great melodies.

Sigur Ros is beautiful music, she would probably like that. They are from Iceland, and the singer is one of the best ever.

Also try: Dredg, Pink Floyd, Kayo Dot, Massive Attack, Godspeed you! Black Emperor, Jeff Buckley, Nick Drake, Maroon 5, and Mew.

I was just about to say Sigur Ros.

Sigur Ros (chill, beautiful post rock)
Elliott Smith (amazingly good singer songwriter)
Sunny Day Real Estate (beautiful post emo, very pretty)
American Football (beautiful indie music, also very pretty)
Boards Of Canada (mostly chillout electronic music)
Bright Eyes (good singer songwriter)
Count Basie (everyone should listen to jazz)
The Cure (just a must listen)
Death Cab For Cutie (chill)
Ella Fitzgerald (beautiful jazz vocalist)
John Coltrane (legend)
The Libertines (mostly feel good moments that kids would like, indie rock)
The Most Serene Republic (beautifully chill electronic indie)
The Postal Service (electro-pop, feel good music)
Muse (pretty good rock band)
Ratatat (feel good electronica)
Rocky Votolato (mostly happy singer songwriter, I wouldn't recommend Nick Drake)
Rush (legend)

If you're looking for some pretty gorgeous new age stuff, I'd recommend:

Celtic Woman
Moya Brennan
Clannad
Loreena McKennitt
Enya
Sarah Brightman

All are extremely beautiful

You wouldn't recommend Nick Drake because hes sad...but you recommend Elliott and Bright Eyes? That and bright eyes and elliott swear quite a bit this is a little kid, Nick Drake would be more appropriate.

I don't know why people would suggest post rock for a 6 year old , hell I find about 80% of it boring now , God knows what I would have thought of it when I was 6.
When I was that age I wanted short catchy songs I could sing along to. I think mainstream rock thats easy to find on the radio would be the most ideal , stuff like The Killers , Kasier Chiefs , Razorlight ...stuff thats energetic & catchy.
