It's one of those talking, singing, humming, weather-reporting, poetry-reading, novel-reciting, jingle-jangling, rockaby-crooning-when-you-go-to-bed houses... With stoves that say, 'I'm apricot pie, and I'm done,' or 'I'm prime roast beef, so baste me!' and other nursery gibberish like that... A house that barely tolerates humans, I tell you.

Alexa does sing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wYGN5ocl950 and with a little modification it will play a lullaby if you ask it to https://www.amazon.com/Pretzel-Labs-Baby-Lullaby/dp/B07B7LH8...
