Childrens Music at Wikipedia
Children's music is used here to refer to music composed and performed for children by adults.
In European influenced contexts this means music, usually songs, written specifically for a juvenile audience. The composers are usually adults. Children's music has historically held both entertainment and educational functions.
Children's music is often designed to provide an entertaining means of teaching children about their culture, other cultures, good behavior, facts and skills.
Many are folk songs, but there is a whole genre of educational music that has become increasingly popular.
