Hip music for kids and their parents
"How could we ever begin to thank you for bringing excellent childrens' musicians like Justin Roberts, Ralph Covert and the Waco Brothers into our lives?! We never though tunes for kids could be so hip. And this is the truth...my husband plays it on his iPod while walking the dog!
We've also subscribed to the Nodcast!!
Yay!
Thank you!

Our 2year olds favorite!
"Yellow Bus is absolutely my 2 year olds favorite and the Ladybug Picnic song. The overall sound of the songs is kind of folk music, which isn't quite what I was expecting. We do really love it though!"

Unique and fun
"Not your typical kids music, but it is knee tapping, and fun. I absolutely love "All Around the Kitchen" and "Yellow Bus" - especially now that our oldest has started riding the bus :-)"

Great cd!
"I received Vol 1 and Vol 2 as a gift for my daughter. She loves them both! I enjoy them too and find myself singing the songs when I'm alone. This cd is a great new baby gift, especially with free shipping!"

best kids cd ever!!!
"We bought both Volume 1 and 2, and love every song! I have 3 boys, ages 7, 5, and 4, and they each have their favorite songs they request each time we listen to the cd. Not only are the songs "cool," but they are very kid friendly! I actually listen to them even when the kids are not in the car! Great choice of music!"

Wore the first one out...had to buy it again!
"We bought this CD 2 1/2 years ago (along with the second volume). It is a family favorite. My daughter is now 4 and has been loading it and playing by herself for the last 6 months. Needless to say that it has gotten a little scratched. We had to buy another . This CD is enjoyed by friends and family from 70 to 1 year old!"

Interesting and original music
"We were given this as a gift and we stuck it in the cd player on a long car journey. The songs are all very original and quite catchy, our daughter (aged 2) loved "Yellow Bus" in particular and we kept getting asked to play that one! The music is definitely bearable for the adult ear too and it makes a nice change to the basic nursery rhyme type music - there is something new to listen to here. They have thrown in a couple of classics though but with a twist."

fun music!
"Recently my hubby has really gotten into old folk music and we've started a family folk band. So I was excited to find this collection of folk music for children - it's very upbeat and my nieces have enjoyed dancing in the living room to it. Overall a great purchase."

Great for the Entire Family
"From Dan Zane to Pete Seeger my kids (and I) love this CD and still, years later, listen to it. It was a great jumping off point to explore other children's musicians."

Great mix
"I baught this CD for my 2 year old son to listen to while he was playing. It is a HIT! He particulary loves the "Yellow Bus" song (aka Yeyyow Bus). As for me, I just love "Ladybugs' Picnic". Beutifully sung songs and fun for the whole family. Get this CD, you will be happy you did."

Fun Music
"I originally purchased this CD because I recognized Dan Zane's "All Around the Kitchen" and knowing my son loved that song when he heard it played on Noggin. After listening to the whole CD, the songs are catchy, we did recognize a few more, and it's great music to have on while you're playing at home with your kids."

Great to Sing Along WIth!
"This is a fabulous buy that creates a great opportunity to interact with your child on a long car ride. The songs are short enough to keep the attention span of a toddler and easy enough to remember the words. My son loves the upbeat music and I often find him dancing away in his car seat.
A wonderful stocking stuffer - or gift for just about any child!"
