Taking inspiration from everyone from Maurice Sendak to punk-rockers, Miss Nina’s new CD, “Sha Doo Be Doop,” is great fun for kids — and the parents who love to sing and dance with them. So mark your calendars, because the Brooklyn singer-songwriter’s “Doop” drops on April 16. Miss Nina says that her focus is “writing and performing songs that speak to children,” as opposed to musicians who cater to adults’ musical tastes, but the two are not mutually exclusive. Stone’s punk-lite “Angry Song,” is as much fun for grown-ups as their progeny. Recommended for kids ages 1-6, several of the tunes are inspired by classic children’s books, such as “Wild Things,” in which she instructs kids to “roar your terrible roar” and “show your terrible claws.”
