How can I turn on my kids

How can I turn on my kids to the wonders of polka music?
Polka Parent
My dear Parent,
Alas, from what Zosia is seeing of American youths, perhaps best way is in forbidding them to listen to it.
Ha Ha! This is small joke Zosia is making. 
Perhaps this is seeming oddball, but Zosia must be surmising that young peoples are responding most favorably to music made by young peoples.  Perhaps you are having successes with your kids by playing very old polka musics made when polka bands were mostly young peoples themselves.  She is noticing that old LPs of bands such as Connecticut Twins and Johnny Prytko and Walt Solek and Larry Chesky are having much wildness and vigor that some younger peoples are liking very much. 
Best of luck to you, Mr (or Ms) Parent
Zosia

    I'm hoping I can get my grandchildren to enjoy the music and carryon the Polish tradition in my family. My son is 37 and still won'tlisten to polka music.
