Product Description
From Amazon.com
Legendary Canadian children's entertainer Raffi encourages children to sing, dance, and expand their imaginations in this sequel to Singable Songs for the Very Young. Few kids can resist quacking with the traveling fowl in "Six Little Ducks" or following along with the frolic of "You Gotta Sing." Even adults may find themselves toe-tappin' with Raffi's rousing version of "New River Train." For quieter moments, diminutive listeners can let their creativity soar as they look inside clouds and go to the zoo with a prehistoric buddy in "If I Had a Dinosaur" or pretend they're riding their own palomino as they listen to the clip-clopping hoof beats in "Listen to the Horses." --Deborah Moore

This CD along with "Singalble Songs for the Very Young" are absolutely great. In our family the music is equally enjoyed by the parents as well as our two year old twins, and I can imagine all other age groups will enjoy this happy and "real" music as well. Recomended.

I listened to "Singable Songs For The Very Young" when I was growing up, and I feel it made a positive difference in my life. Now I play it for my children, and they love to listen to these great children's songs. This CD has made a great contribution to our family life.
This is Raffi’s first album (one of many masterpiece Raffi children’s CD’s) and I feel the best children’s music album ever made. It forever changed children’s music for the better when it came out. This fun and singable album has sold over 3 million copies and has been honored by educators. Please buy this for your child and listen to the results; Raffi's music never gets old.
The notes from the original 1976 album are insightful:
"SINGABLE SONGS FOR THE VERY YOUNG was made possible with the indispensable help and guidance of an advisory group consisting of Daphne Pike, Director of St. Phillips Nursery School in Toronto; Debi Pike and Bonnie Simpson, kindergarten teachers at Shoreham Drive Public School in North York; and Bert Simpson, a primary teacher at Driftwood Public School in North York. Their care and dedication made a great contribution to this record for which I am deeply grateful.
"It was Daphne Pike who first suggested that I make this album. She feels there's a great need for good recorded music for young children and I think she is right. Music for adults is continually changing and progressing and we have a multitude of recorded works to choose from. However there are very few good children's records.
"But children deserve good music too! And that's the very idea behind this album. It contains a great variety of easily singable songs: some counting, some rhyming, some kinda funny, and some almost pensive; some songs feature the voice and some highlight the instruments; some old classics, and some brand new songs to learn; some old songs made fresh, and even some instrumental solos (junior jazz!) And whenever Ken Whitely is involved you can bet the music will be lively; his imaginative approach to songs resulted in some memorable arrangement; and the educational concepts were always dressed in entertaining clothes.
"When I was a kid, I always liked it when learning was fun. I hope you enjoy listening to this album as much as I enjoyed recording it. I look forward to the next one.
"Raffi, 1976."

I was lucky enough to grow up lisiting to raffi, and it is such a joy watching my son get the same enjoyment out of these engaging songs as I did. Great on car journey, the music can be enjoyed by the whole family. Everyone needs to shake their sillies out everynow and then.
