Wheels on the Bus

We bought this CD a month ago, after having grooved to the funky video for Itsy Bitsy Spider (Comcast On-Demand).While our 18-month-old Chloe loves to clap along, my wife & I are also loving the songs so much, that we are definitely purchasing several more as Christmas gifts for our friends amd family.Personally, my faves are "Walter the Weasel" and "Froggy Went a Courtin", who play a mean trumpet and a dangerous saxophone respectively -- who knew that animals could be so musically accomplished? And the "Three Blind Mice" also make an exciting ensemble (particularly given their lack of vision).All in all, it's refreshing for us new parents to be blessed w/ jazzy, upbeat versions on children's music, giving us a holiday from the usual, bland childrens' songs that are pervasive in the marketplace & media today.

I ordered this for my two preschool grandsons and it turned out to be the mostest favorite of theirs. It's been years, right, since I ordered it? I must have listened to it a million times by now. I would wearily recommend it. No really, it is adorable and fun and catchy.

Music was overstimulating for children. Too noisy and not soothing.Some of the songs were better than others in terms of the noise factor.
