Meet the Simon Sisters is the debut studio album by the Simon Sisters, released by Kapp Records, in 1964.

Consisting of sisters Lucy Simon and Carly Simon, the duo had a minor hit with "Winkin’, Blinkin’ And Nod",[2] a children's poem by Eugene Field that Lucy had put to music. The single reached No. 73 on the Billboard Hot 100.[3] They quickly followed the album up with Cuddlebug, which was recorded during the same sessions as Meet the Simon Sisters.
