This dad is turning his 3-year-old's stories into adorable, groovy songs
If you've ever heard a toddler tell a story, then you know they have a tendency to let the narrative meander. Kids often have an excess of imagination and a deficit of mental organization, leading to silly, wildly entertaining tales.
One parent has taken it upon himself to turn his 3-year-old's silly, adorable stories into cute, catchy tunes — songs he's posted online to the benefit of us all. Stephen Spencer is more than qualified; he's a songwriter, composer, and music professor, which means the somewhat silly exercise has resulted in songs that are way too good.
Listen to this ditty about the Apple Man, for instance, which has racked up millions of views.

"Apple-the-Stoola the Apple Man" is going to rattle around your head for days, I guarantee it. And just when you might think this whole thing is a one-hit-wonder — nope! Let me introduce you to "Regular Rabbit." You're simply not going to believe the regularity of this rabbit named Pippa-Tory Fripp.
Seriously, these songs are amazing. Most of Spencer's TikTok and Instagram are devoted to his daughter's masterpieces. His audience has really responded to every song he's posted. Don't sleep on "Funchy the Snow-woman," for instance. Mashable reached out to Spencer for further details but did not hear back in time for publication.
If you want to support Spencer and his daughter's work, however, you can pre-save "Regular Rabbit" before it hits the music platform of your choosing.
