Boy, some people do take the "born yesterday" bit to heart. don't they.

Your son is too small to understand all the good that comes with Python.
Let him be a usual newborn, but prepare a harness like I did for my
daughter (now nearly 2 y.o.): Tuxpaint. Now it's a big time to add
Python scripting to this proggie. ;)

Let our children see that programming can be straight and easy. Let them
express their thoughts as programs, if they wish to do so.

There is something near the end of the Camel book (p. 552ff).
This isn't exactly python, but the baby probably won't see
the difference.

Not a lullaby, but appropriate near easter(s)

I'm familiar with this one as:
all(pony for pony in ponies if pony.pretty).

Never knew there was a version with "horse", not "pony".  Jane Siberry
does a nice rendition of the pony version.

There's also:

if brother_john.is_sleeping():
pass
if brother_john.is_sleeping():
pass
assert bells['morning'].is_ringing()
assert bells['morning'].is_ringing()

Well, you might start with "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little 
Asterisk" or:

 >>> "Blind Mice" * 3
 >>> you is self.sunshine
 >>> [horse for horse in horses if horse.pretty]
 >>> for baby in tree.top.babies:
...if wind.blows(): baby.cradle.rock()
...if tree.bough.breaks():
...fall([baby, cradle, all])
...

and last, and certainly worst:

 >>> "Mary had a Little Lambda"

While you're at it, if you want them to learn Vim, you can 
hum them "Bram's Lullaby"... (groan)

Okay...that's a bad enough starter :)

Then isn't that the perfect lullaby material?  ;-)

[OT] Any Python lullabies?

[Christos Georgiou]

Since there have been python limmericks, are there any Python lullabies that
I can sing to my newborn son (actually, born yesterday)?  I tried to murmur
some select parts from the tutorial, but he somehow wasn't very interested
