Many of the filk panels, and the shanty sing (if it's going on this year) are also good with kids. At least, mine likes them.

But mine likes to sing, too.

Do you know if there are "Saturday Morning Cartoons" again, too?

Most of the sea shanties I know (the fun ones at least)are not appropriate for kids.

really? I know quite a few that are about the work, or about rough seas or missing home, but of the all the ones I know, only a couple are off-color. Meanwhile, as we say at ren fair - if the kid gets it, it's not our fault.

There are a few of those. But a lot are about how they deal with the unavailability of women when they're at sea and with the availability of women when they're not at sea. Oscar Brand did a bunch of albums of bawdy sea songs back in the 60s.

Yeah, I want to add filk as well, but wanted to make sure with them it was cool/appropriate.
