Man, so cool to be able to add to a discussion that goes this far back on the 'net. To start, Alan Arkin & Carol Burnett performed Don't in a TV special they did here: https://youtu.be/P9DrkoBo9fE&t=334 This is what got me searching into it. Happy to say that just in the past few months, all of the albums have finally found their way onto YouTube, uploaded by a person who appears to be part of the Kaplan family that founded The Baby Sitters. https://youtu.be/3jrYfqHW9W0&t=869 Hope this reaches someone who happens to look up "don't spread butter on the floor", just like I did, haha.

> i think these songs were from a kids' album from the 60s or 70s called Animal Menagerie. I remember Don't, Fooba Wooba, and Donkey in the Stable so clearly that they get stuck in my head to this day. i cannot find it for the life of me. anybody had any luck??
