You only need to set up a library for "Kids Tunes", as you can use the standard 
"My Music" menus to access all music.
Unless you also want a library that contains "Tunes" but not "Kids Tunes"?

Install Multi Library and Custom Browse.

To configure "Kids Tunes" library:
1. In Web UI, go to Extras > Multi Library.
2. Click "Create new library", and choose a library template.  For a basic 
selection of options, choose "Standard Library without artist selection".
3. Enter the library properties.  Critical items are:
        Library name, eg. "Kids Tunes".
        Menu Group, under which "Kids Tunes" will be found.
        Enter the full path to the location where the music files are, eg. 
"C:\Tunes\KidsTunes"
        Select the browse menus you want to see in the library, eg. Albums, 
Artists, Genres, etc.
4. Press "Next" to create the library.

That's it really.  You can change/enhance with the settings at any time by 
going back into Extras > Multi Library, and selecting the pencil icon next to 
the library name.  Eg, you could select to only include specific genres, or 
exclude some specific genres.  You could add/remove browse menus for the 
library, etc.


NB: Beware that if you change the librar "Menu Group" property, I think it 
requires a SBS restart for the old menu location to dissapear.

The library will appear within My Music > Custom Browse > {menu group name} > 
{library name}.  If you ticked "Show in home menu" (I think this is ticked by 
default), then it will also appear within My Music > {menu group name} > 
{library name}.

eg. if you entered menu group = "Libraries", then you would find it within "My 
Music > Custom Browse > Libraries > Kids Tunes" and "My Music > Libraries > 
Kids Tunes.  If you leave the group name blank, it would appear under "My Music 
> Kids Tunes".
