Check out that tracklist! Not only can you teach your child with the education of Schoolhouse Rock, but you can also have them listening to people like Chavez, Pavement, and Man Or Astro Man? Plus, Daniel Johnston who would be another great option because of his child-like nature.
I used to work at a camp and had to come up with camp-appropriate music. Cared less about genre, but one trick I had was look at major pop acts on tour and see who was opening for them. A lot of times, it'd be some family-friendly rock band or something along those lines.
As an example, Katy Perry is going to be touring with Noah Cyrus, Purity Ring, and Carly Rae Jepsen. Never heard of the first, but Purity Ring a great electro-pop act (Another Eternity is an incredible album), and while I don't like Carly Rae Jepsen I know she's somewhat of an indie darling.
I'd then do a lyrics check to see if they were okay and if so, I'd add them to the list and be able to play music at work that wasn't solely One Direction and Taylor Swift.

Whoa! This is amazing! so many of my favorite bands from the 90s. Never saw this before! Thanks!
This is going to be the best 8 year old playlist ever! 😎

You mean the album with the lyric “the dawn will touch me in a way a boy could never touch”, right? The hidden euphemisms and such are totally for kids!
Anyway, to answer the question myself I think Tilly would do well with some twee since lyrically it’s probably a good point to expand from. Bands like I’m from Barcelona, The Boy Least Likely To, Belle & Sebastian, Tilly & the Wall (no pun intended), and others might be a good fit. I don’t know. I’d need better reference points. Just be sure to read lyrical sheets before you decide, yeah?
Oh uh...ummm.....kinda forgot about that line. My apologies 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Yes. Might as well start her on the road to respectability now, before she gets brainwashed by Rolling Stone and Spin 🤣🤣🤣
Plus, by the time she's about 40 or so, it will be universally recognized as the greatest album ever made. So, if she starts now, it will only take until she's 18 or so to fall in love with it, and for the next 20-odd years she can brag to all her friends that she caught on before everyone else did. _________________ Best Classical Best Films Best Paintings
