All I can say is that I bought this CD for my nephew for Christmas and it has been an absolute hit! His parents are always telling me what an amazing present it was as my nephew listens to it every day and they also really like it as it is proper music rather than the usual annoying children's music. My nephew, who is about 22 months old now, loves dancing to the music and very often asks for the CD to be put on. I don't think it has left the CD player since Christmas!
My brother and I are fans of jazz music so it's nice to be able to educate his son with the music that we love in a form that he can enjoy. The international mixture of the music is a nice extra touch too. I particularly like 'Stomp Stomp', 'Spider-man', 'Sur Le Pont d'Avignon 'Little Lamb Jam' and 'Shortnin' Bread', but they're all great. You will get them in your head and start singing them to yourself, but you won't mind because they are genuinely good songs.
I am now in love with the whole range of Putumayo CDs, though I think they can be a bit hit and miss and do depend on your music tastes to a certain degree (I recommend going on their website and listening to the samples before you buy). Last year I bought one of the Christmas ones, New Orleans Christmas, and it is the best Christmas CD I have ever bought. I'm really happy that I discovered the children's ones as well and am currently trying to decide which one to get for my nephew's 2nd birthday; I think I want them all!

Having already enjoyed other CDs in the Putumayo series I bought this for my baby son and it seems to have gone down very well. As with all Putumayo compilations, it is cheerful and catchy but without being irritating. Highlights include the Dutch song "Zuignapje" which is totally unpronounceable to the non-Dutch but quite hilarious and the first track "Stomp, Stomp" which will definitely get you stomping.

An exciting album of jazz songs by a diversity of performers
22 Mar 2010
Format:Audio CD
Jazz Playground is an exciting album of jazz songs by a diversity of performers, composed to entice children. Offering an eclectic medley of styles ranging from bebop to swing to Latin and African jazz, Jazz Playground celebrates the many evolutions of jazz worldwide (some of the songs trace their origins from places as far away as Japan, Israel, or the Netherlands). Though a family-friendly album, Jazz Playground will also get parents, babysitters, and other adults tapping their feet and snapping their fingers to the lively, rollicking music! Especially recommended for parents who love jazz and want to show their children how much joy it can bring. The tracks are "Stomp, Stomp", "Spider-man", "Cumbamba", "Sur Le Pont D'Avignon", "Little Lamb Jam", "Gazooba", "Sing a Song of Sixpence", "Zuignapje", "Shortnin' Bread", "Agree & Disagree", "Dois Meninos", "Oyatsu no Jikan", and "This Little Light of Mine".

Great choice for preschoolers!
19 Nov 2010
Format:Audio CD
All of the Putumayo "Playground" CD's are fantastic and this is one of my favorites. I teach young children and I love to use authentic, excellent music for dance and instrumental improvisation with them, rather than "children's music," which can too often be less-than-great quality and uninspiring. This CD will get their toes tapping and their bodies moving! My favorite tracks are "Stomp Stomp," an infectiously bouncy old-time jazz number, and "Cumbamba" by the wonderful Jose Conde - this one is great for exploring curly, wiggly, slithery movements. Children love this CD!

To be enjoyed by parents and kids

I really enjoyed this CD -- it was wonderful to listen to it as an adult and a fantastic alternative to the usual childish tunes kids' music CDs provide.
