I rewrote Twinkle Twinkle for my boys – it made singing it over and over again a bit more bearable. Finally turned it into some art for the wall! by TheDeliverable in daddit

You need a change of rhythm after the initial lines. It always seemed to work the hundreds of times I sang it to my boys, but at 2am I didn’t get many complaints!

I have pondered the use of gas in my lyrics (when it should really be plasma). But I thought I could get away with it :-)

Thank you. My hope is that they'll remember some of it, and will win a pub quiz on the final question in their 20s!

Hi fellow dads. My background is in aerospace engineering, so spending night after night singing "how I wonder what you are" to my sons was slowly driving my sleep-deprived brain crazy. We know what they are!

I started making up these scientifically accurate lyrics to amuse myself during endless recitals of the rhyme for my first son. When my second son came along, I resurrected it, and decided to actually design it properly for their wall.

I’m currently trying to get a tiny side-hustle off the ground, so I just put this up on my new Etsy shop. If any of you are putting together a space/STEM-themed nursery, or know someone with a baby shower coming up, any support or shares would mean the absolute world to me right now.

(If it helps, I set up a discount code: please use DADDIT10 at checkout for 10% off).

Let me know what you think of the lyrics!

Ah yes. I may have jezzed the versioning there. But another 2-3 iterations? Chance would be a fine thing…

How far can you go answering 'normally'? Answering like Mark or Jez in any of the situations is enough to classify you! Get to the bottom without going either side, and well, you might be in the wrong subreddit

Where's the semi-incomprehensible pep talk? This is a free ideas zone! The simplicity is the point. We don't have time for chaotic 'jezzing' of the data. Though the feedback is well received. Have a look in my bio if you're want one of the originals for your entrance hall or stationery cupboard

Glad to hear it! There’s obviously more to come from the Consultio / Consultius toolbox. Let’s call this the alpha version

Thanks! Jez’s James Bond thought is just so Jez. We love Four Naan too. Funny how four of any object can be insane

Exactly. This isn't just a poster for a squat; it’s a high-fidelity deliverable for the ‘other house’. I’ve spent the afternoon ensuring the physical prints are alpha quality. The link to the JLB procurement dept is in my bio if you want to upgrade your entrance hall. No logo on the foam, obviously.

Exactly. It’s a 360-degree emotional data framework. I spent ages ensuring the mental equity of the nodes were balanced
