5.0 out of 5 stars We all love the Philadelphia Chickens., 9 Oct 2004
By A Customer
It is a wonderful introduction to different types of music for children, and adults find it amazing to hear Kevin Kline singing in Gilbert and Sullivan style, or Meryl Streep singing the blues. It is ridiculous, hilarious, and a pleasure for all ages to hear. It's singing, dancing, jumping, and satifying. And that's just the CD. The book is also fun and nonsensical, and after reading the first page, we were all hooked. Our 4 year old son knows the words, and sings and dances and laughs like crazy.

By M. Khanna (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
We've got all of Sandra Boynton's CDs and love them all. Suitable for ages 3 up to erm 30-something, excellent for singing along to and breakfast time in our house will never be the same again!

5.0 out of 5 stars A present for toddlers AND their parents, 16 Sep 2007
By Linda Bulger (Avon, Maine) - See all my reviews
This CD/book set was an impulse purchase for my granddaughters when they were six months and two-and-a-half. What an incredible find! You just have to laugh out loud at the funky lyrics, set to music that will have the whole family dancing. Seriously! Oh, you don't think you'll really dance? Well try it and see!

The older sister claimed at least six of the songs as her favorites ("Nanna, I like THIS ONE the best!") and the baby would drop everything and listen as soon as "Belly Button" started playing.

"Philadelphia Chickens" won't wear out its welcome -- many thanks to the brilliant Sandra Boynton and her cast of amazing performers. I've bought two copies of the CD for myself and wound up giving them away -- well, I meant to lend them but couldn't seem to get them back. DO give a toddler this wonderful gift, but you'd better get your own as well. It's a real ray of sunshine!
