 CD For Kids and AdultsNov 12, 2009
This is an inspiring CD of world music. It comes with a brochure of information about the selections that I have used as a teacher of Social Studies.
Great CD!Dec 22, 2008
This is another great CD from Putumayo kids. Great upbeat music for the entire family. The songs have their unique style (coming from different countries).
We love Putumanyo Playgrounds!Jan 28, 2008
We bought this CD on a whim when my daughter was a baby. Now that she's 3, it is her favorite CD. We have 3 other 'Playground' CDs and they're all wonderful. What I like best about them is that my husband and I enjoy listening to them, too. It is very accesible world music.
Good listeningJan 14, 2008
While this music is great for kids, it is one of our favorites because the adults can listen without going batty. Listen to the samples. That and the different sounds and languages earn this five stars in our house.
Fantastic!Dec 17, 2007
My 14-months-old loves the happy music!! The second he sees me turning the CD on, he starts to bounce! We also enjoy the African Playground...and in his letter to Santa my son asked for Spanish Playground. Great collection.
