Toddlers Sing

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
With 20 tunes in around 38 minutes, this CD is ideal for listeners in its targeted audience: kids from 2 to 5 years old. The songs (and rhymes) are all classics, and each is taken at a slack enough pace that the artists stand out. And who are the artists? Kids themselves, all in the targeted age range. They get an acoustic folk accompaniment for "I'm a Little Teapot" and a faux R&B backing for other tunes. Loosely gathered in, the lyrics for the songs delight children's ears and are tremendously cute, full of offhand mirth and glee. There are moments of in-studio laughter that make the final CD, and if that weren't enough, there are also what sound like impromptu recitations, from "Peas, Porridge Hot" to the quick "Fuzzy Wuzzy." In addition, the CD includes a great "Happy Birthday" and numerous examples of call-and-response singing that make adults happy merely to hear something so unhampered by excessive scripting, structure, or controlled forethought. --Andrew Bartlett

From Parents' Choice®
This nursery rhyme collection could have been painfully coy and sticky; instead these 2, 3, and 4-year-old performers are disarmingly unselfconscious a nd completely adorable. The ebullient musical accompaniment never overwhelms th e pint-sized warblers' natural charm. Toddlers and preschoolsers will love it. A 1999 Parents' Choice Silver Award Winner. Recommended for ages 0 to 6. (Lynne Heffley, Parents' Choice®).

Actually fun to listen to!.......2006-11-10

I bought this CD for my 14 month old grandson. I've been singing "The Itsy Bitsy Spider" to him since the day he was born and introduced him to "Wheels on the Bus" - both on this CD. He loved hearing those familiar songs. My daughter reports that he loves it and so does she! The little voices are genuine, soothing and so sweet!

Very Annoying.......2005-08-09

I found this cd, and the toddlers sing rock cd, highly annoying. My daughter was not very enthusiastic about it either since it lacks the musicality she is used to in her other cds.

Toddlers Sing.......2005-08-05

Toddlers singing is the absolute best. My grandaughter loves this cd. I wish we had more of this. It gets difficult with only one. Please make more.
Sincerely,
Grace Purcell

Great CD.......2004-04-25

I bought this CD and played some songs I liked.
I understood their words. It sounded like Apee Borte 2 U . What?????

EXCELLENT!!.......2003-06-10

I drive my toddler to and from school every day. Before this CD I would arrive at work with a dry mouth from singing with my toddler. Now, I just pop in the CD and let her sign along. She loves it (sometimes I find myself singing along too). The songs are all great. The children singing are incredible and my toddler has learned most the songs. I definitely recommend this CD to any parent.

Perfect !.......2005-03-02

This Cd is perfect for little ones and even big ones like me. I bought this CD for my 2 1/2 year old grandaughter and we both are enjoying it beyond my expectations. The choices of songs and the toddler voices to match the songs are a perfect combination. They have a way of KEEPING your attention. I highly reccomend this Cd as it is delightful !!! I am purchasing two more of these CD's for gifts.

You've seen kids who are too cute for their own good? Or really proud parents (usually really new parents) who think that every new trick little Johnny or Maddie performs is so adorable that they could die? Well Toddlers Sing Playtime is the audio equivalent of both. Eighteen tracks long, Toddlers covers many of the popular kid songs you'll hear on Barney ("A Sailor Went to Sea," "Bingo"), the old war horses ("She'll Be Coming Around the Mountain," "Hokey Pokey," "London Bridge"), and some lesser known original ditties ("My Little Playmate," "Jump Rope Medley"). Toddlers will cotton to this playful, sing-songy sweetnessfest. --Martin Keller

New Mom from Florida.......2005-07-19

I agree 100% with "A toy enthusiast's" 12/9/02 review dated December 9, 2002.....Although the song selection and overall idea of children singing are good, the CD is extremely annoying because the children sing in "Little-Rascals-Alfalfa-like" voices, often with manufactured-sounding speech impediments.

Good song selection, but annoying singing.......2002-12-10

We received this CD as a gift when expecting our baby. While we certainly appreciate the thought behind the gift, as the songs on the CD are good and the idea of children singing the songs is good, the CD is unfortunately quite annoying. First, the children do not sing with their natural singing voices. Instead, almost every one of them affects an annoying, Little-Rascals-Alfalfa-like voice. Second, ninety-nine percent of the solos are sung by children with real or affected speech impediments. I have nothing against children with speech impediments, but I don't think their singing is any cuter than that of children without speech impediments. In fact, since my child is just learning to speak and sing, I would prefer that he hear the singing of children without speech impediments, so that he is not confused about how to say or sing certain words. I would think that this would be helpful for children with speech impediments, as well. It is too bad that these two things make the CD so annoying, because the songs selection is good otherwise.

Toddler Sings - Our kids loved it (and so did we).......2002-07-10

We got this tape in a library pack for a long road trip. We had a geat time singing all the songs - they are really wonderful. The little kids voices can be pretty irritating (really irritating at times!) but the fun wins out.

Vapid lyrics will leave you wanting to push eject!.......2002-07-09

Vapid/obnoxoius lyrics which in some cases are NOT age appropriate for young children. One exapmle:

Cindarella, dressed in yellow
Went upstairs to kiss her fella
How many kisses did it take?
1,2,3,4,5,6,7, more . . .

Please do yourself a favor ans skip this tape. do the rest of the world a favor and buy and destroy any copies you find at retail. It really is that annoying!

Loads of Fun!.......2001-09-07

We love this CD! My one-year-old son and three-year-old daughter have a great time dancing every day to it. My daughter knows all the words. The kids on the CD are so funny and still make me chuckle. I would recommend Toddlers Sing Playtime to any one who has energetic kids who love to dance.

Really cute!.......2002-03-07

I've got all 3 of the other CDs in this series and they're all great. My toddler really responds to the other children's voices and wants to hear it all the time. He just can't get enough!

Toddlers Sing Rock 'N' Roll Not as good as the others.......2002-01-27

The previous three Toddlers Sing cds are excellent. My grandkids enjoy them all the time. This Rock and Roll cd just does't do it! Music is too loud - none of the joy and excitement of the previous Toddlers Sing cds. A real disappointment.

Toddlers, like most anybody, appreciate being put in touch with music that connects them to their peers, and that's precisely the point of Toddlers Sing Storytime, the third release in the Music for Little People label's Toddlers Sing series (following the debut and Playtime). The CD culls classics like "Hot Cross Buns," "The Three Little Kittens," and "The Owl and the Pussycat," but dry recitations don't cut it here. The approach, rather, is to let a handful of frothy toddlers run with this stuff, often to hilarious effect. "Yolking," for instance, about Humpty Dumpty's famed fall cracks the kids up, and instead of passively pondering the location of the wayward pup in "Oh Where, Oh Where (Has My Little Dog Gone)," they take a breather toward song's end to set up a silly search party. Along the same lines, the little girl who breaks into "Baa Baa Black Sheep" confounds her fellow singing toddlers by intimating, adorably, that the sheep in question may in fact be pink, and the Muffin Man, always sort of a mysterious figure, finally gets a formal introduction by the young fellow who tackles his namesake tune. Each performer defies expectations on these ditties, but the English-accented tot who takes on "The Grand Old Duke of York" deserves special mention for his determined tone, as does the sweet-voiced singer of "Bow Bow (On My Violin)." Otherwise, the kids' off-the-cuff banter, sublime in its silliness, is this record's main selling point; it's bound to make 2- to 4-year-olds feel like flies on the wall at a play group for particularly precocious, fun-loving friends. --Tammy La Gorce

Customer Reviews:

Annoying!! (For parents at least) .......2004-09-02

Wow, the reviewer who said parents would be annoyed were RIGHT on the button. This is only the third time I've *had* to listen to this CD and I'm already ready to chuck it into the trash. It's Ok when the kids are just singing as themselves, but in way too many of the songs the kids are faking English accents (why?)-- very annoying when it's not your own kid. :)

GOOD STUFF.......2001-12-20

This is a big favorite of our 3 year old during car trips. It keeps her occupied, and singing along. She probably is more inclined to sing along as the singers on the CD are children, rather than adults.

Entertaining for the tots.......2001-04-24

Our son, who is 7 months old, is mesmerized by this CD. The first day we received this CD I played it in the car while we were out running errands and he was quiet the whole time. Just last week while driving home our son was getting fussy (because I was listening to talk radio) so I popped in the CD and he was quiet the rest of the way home - this alone would motivate me to buy another one.

The songs are fun, after playing it non-stop most everytime were in the car, I'm still not tired of it. I enjoy listening/hearing the different dialects of the children and the songs are fun and entertaining.

I envision, as our son gets older, we'll sing these songs together in the car and that will make the CD even more enjoyable for both of us. But right now, anything that keeps him happy and entertained in the car gets an A+ in my book.

Toddler Rock.......2000-12-28

My 2 year old daughter loves this CD. The songs are fun and easy to dance to. The nursery rhymes are familiar and my daughter enjoys reciting the lyrics and hearing them over and over and over again. This is definitely a great alternative to television and makes playtime much more fun! Your kids will love it.

Children love it!.......2000-11-13

This CD is packed with all the familiar songs that we have grown to love. What makes it different from the rest is that there are children themselves singing the songs. I teach dance classes for children and my little ones (3 and 4 yr. old) love this CD. I would recommend this one for the younger children that enjoy music and want to sing along.
