Format:Paperback
We bought this tape and book pack when our daughter was only 6 months old - far too young to start the actions, but we played the tape regularly for her to listen to. 12 months on, she now laughs with delight every time she hears the music - firstly because it is so familiar, and also because now she can enjoy and join in with the actions - peekaboo, tickling songs, bouncing, fingerplays, lullabies - they've all been thought of. Many familiar tunes are sung by both male and female voices, with or without instruments, and some more unusual songs also soon become favourites. None of them are particularly long, which means a total of 52 songs on the tape maintains interest and is very good value. Buy it - I have, for many of my friends with children !

What a great little set, I regularly sing these songs to my children, the actions are great, the music uncluttered, perfect for young children. Lots of rhythmic text and music and songs are in sections from fingerplays to trotters! These songs are great for bonding with your baby and child. With both male and female voices it's nice for all the family to join in.Never mind getting baby clothes, get this set as a gift for a new baby or for a birthday. It will be used again and again, long after the clothes have been put away in a drawer!

My little girl, Jemma (11 months), loves these songs! Iım so pleased to have found traditional songs, played and sung so beautifully. Iıve found it really hard to find music for children that really appreciates that children deserve good music.
The cd has loads of action songs, and the booklet that goes with it has actions depending on the age of the child, great ideas for making instruments out of junk, and useful stuff on setting up your own local babies and toddler music group.
My daughter goes to a music play session once a week with her dad and really enjoys it. I hope this cd and booklet will inspire people to set up more music groups.

from previous reviews I was really looking forwards to getting this CD and book set. However the CD is not as good as I'd expected, often with unaccompanied singing or with an... Read more

Beautiful songs!
I can really vouch for this CD as I bought it ten years ago for my daughter to listen to, and we are still singing the songs 10 years on with our third child. Read more

Great for Parents and Teachers
I bought this book just after my daughter was born - to supplement my limited range of songs for babies. I enjoy singing - but the audio tape (now CD) proved invaluable. Read more

IT's hard to say if this is any good. For me, it isn't really because the seller did not provide a CD with the book. Read more

A really good buy!!
This is a lovely resource to use from even just a few weeks old. There are lots of songs and rhymes and I quite often just put the CD on as we play and I'm learning the songs like... Read more

Pleased with my purchase
I take my little one to a music group where some of these songs are sung, and she has responded really well to the CD - smiling and clapping along. Read more
