I worked as a licensed in-home daycare provider, a preschool teacher, and an assistant childcare director. I'm also a mother and an auntie so I can speak from experience when I say this music CD is a MUST for parents, playgroups, and teachers of young toddlers. In fact, I believe this CD would make the perfect baby shower gift!
The music is easy to sing along to, the beats are uplifting, and many of the songs are time-honored traditions. In fact, the time you spend bonding with your young children will become more enjoyable because you'll no longer be concentrating on "what to do next," but you'll be enjoying the process of playing and interacting with your little ones.
My daughter thought she was "too old" for most of these songs since she's now 9, you know. But I'll let you in on a little secret. They brought back great toddler memories and she couldn't help but stomp her feet and dance to the music. I even caught her singing the songs and later, whistling their tunes.
My husband thought this was (no is) the perfect CD for infants and toddlers because many of these songs were sung to him as a child and have been sung to our children. After listening to the songs and watching his daughter dance and sing, he said, “It would've been a lot easier to sing to music, instead of torturing my children with my poorly-tuned singing voice.”
