Summary: What a yawn!! For insomniacs only!!! Dryer than a dessert!!
Comment: This review is based on the samples on amazon.com
and a a tape of Lisa Monet's I bought a few years ago...
She may have a good singing voice, but it sounds
so slow and lifeless...and very high!! The samples I heard
for this CD on the amazon page were so boring and slow--
and the sound effects she made during some of the samples
like in that teapot song-- stick with the singing
slowly--!!! Muffin man song -- could a song be sung
any slower!!! VERY lackluster, very dry, her voice
was good but not great-- and the guitar added to
the lethargy!!! Would of gave this CD 0 stars
if no stars were possible!!
I reccomend this to anyone who has insomnia,
and listening to this as a substitute for
sleeping pills!!! One might get addicted
to sleeping pills- and that could be bad for
someone, but this CD has the same effect as
sleeping pills as they both will put you to sleep,
and this CD is a healthier safer way to get to sleep!!
For some good Children's music that is very upbeat,
I reccomend Greg and Steve, Red Grammer, Gary The Happy
Pirate.........

Summary: Simple, Singable, Beautiful vocals
Comment: This is a wonderful, basic CD to add to your child's collection. Most of the songs and poems are familiar, or will quickly become so, if you don't already know them. The single soprano voice with acoustic guitar is soothing for a child, but still lively enough for dancing to the more rollicking numbers. My daughter started listening to it as a 4 month old--every time the first song started (Happy and you know it...) she would start kicking and smiling, anticipating the song. She would often be content in her play pen the entire time the CD played.

Summary: What can I say? My son loves it!
Comment: My 2 year old adores this CD. He sings the songs even when it's not playing. One thing I enjoy about it is that it's low key. All the songs whether faster or slower seem to have the same tempo.
I guess it depends on the temperment of your child if you'd like it or not. Mine is musical with tons of positive ENERGY. Whatever the case, it's no action-adventure. It's more like a cuddly drama.

Summary: Not that great
Comment: I have to agree with some others in that this CD is very slow. In fact, it puts my kids to sleep rather than provoke a sing along or dance. Lisa Monet doesn't have a bad voice but the CD sounds as though you were back in the 70's with the wiggly voice and single guitar music. If you are looking for a CD that is calming and somewhat boring than this is your CD. I haven't found a great kids CD yet, but this definitly was NOT not even close.
