Top 10 Favorite Kid CDs

I know this is usually posted at the beginning of the day but we are on vacation in Colorado and enjoying ourselves. Since we committed ourselves to posting each Tuesday, we are following through no matter what is going on in our lives. Today's top ten list is in honor of "Music In Our Schools Month."

1. The Learning Station “Tony Chestnut” - What’s more fun than pointing to different parts of your body with a really cool song about names! All the songs on the CD are fantastic
2. Jessica Harper “Hey Picasso” - Songs inspired by famous works of art. Not just for kids!!
3. Disney Greatest Volumes 1-3 - All the songs we love from Disney’s movies from Snow White to Tarzan! We like playing name that tune with these fun CDs!
4. Sandra Boynton’s “Philadelphia Chickens” - She’s not just a children’s author - her songs are FANTASTIC! We like her CD “Rhinocerous Tap” too!
5. John Lithgow’s “The Remarkable Farkle McBride” - John Lithgow is at the top of our favorite children’s singers! He not only sings fun songs, usually they are educational too! The title song introduces children to the different instruments of the orchestra in a really fun story/song!
6. School House Rock - Education and Music go hand in hand with this classic!
7. Heigh-Ho! Mozart! - Taking Disney tunes and putting them in the style of classical composers is so fun! Great music! Great learning tool!
8. Jim Gill “The Sneezing Song & Other Contagious Tunes” - We were lucky enough to see Jim Gill live in Las Vegas! “May There Always Be Sunshine” is a song that will please adults and children!
9. Primary Focus’ “Choices Count” - A great way to introduce the pillars of character to your children! They will always remember Respect, Responsibility, Fairness, Caring, Citizenship, Trustworthiness, etc.
10. Bare Naked Ladies’ “Snack Time” - If you like the group, you’ll love this CD they made for their own kids! It’s funny! And it’s definitely still the same group we adults love!
