Disappointing,
This review is from: Vol. 1-Learning Basic Skills Through Music (Audio CD)
I was very disappointed with this CD. Mr. Palmer does all of the vocals and most of the other instruments which, by the 8th or 9th song, became quite repetitive and monotonous. Other musicians would have added interest. Musically the songs lacked depth and my kids became bored with them very quickly. Normally I don't do reviews but in this case I felt that I would do others a favour and suggest that they look for something more interesting and lively (Raffi, Bram and Sharon, come to mind or even Pete Seeger who, while also doing all of the vocals, is far more interesting both musically and lyrically). The so-called accompanying pdf 'guide' is simply a copy of the lyrics.

Learning Basic Skills Through Music Vol. 1,
By Kay Thomas - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Vol. 1-Learning Basic Skills Through Music (Audio CD)
As a pre-k, kindergarten teacher since 1986, I have used Hap Palmer's music extensively, and "Learning Basic Skills Through Music Vol. 1" has been one of my student's all-time favorites. Their favorite from this collection of original songs, year after year, is "Marching Around the Alphabet". Even though LBSTM Vol. 1 was relaeased in 1969, the recordings are still as fresh and usable as they were 30 years ago, with attention catching tunes and relevant skill building tools for early learners. (Hap REALLY has staying power!) The songs are ready to go from the first time they are used, with little or no prep time (tip: use alphabet cards with Marching Around the Alphabet), and need minimal or no parent/teacher direction. If you are new to Hap Palmer, start here and branch out! He has music geared to every learning need, including abc's, colors, opposites, feelings, health and safety, vocabulary building, shapes, numbers, emergent letter sound recognition, spatial concepts (I could go on and on), with the added attraction of being great music! Good choices would be: "Easy Does It", with the mega-hit "Tap Your Sticks"; Getting to Know Myself, featuring "Sammy"; "Ideas, Thoughts and Feelings", with the great "Letter Sounds" songs; LBSTM Vol. 2, which includes my fav, "Parade of Colors"; "Sally the Swinging Snake, (do the "Wiggy Wiggy Wiggles" with YOUR little one; you'll feel like your four and love it!); "Walter the Walzing Worm", (dance with Walter, he's not slimey!); and Witches' Brew", which includes the ALL TIME NUMBER ONE HIT with the kids, "Scamper". All I can say is, Hap Palmer's music is the standard by which all children's music, educational or otherwise, should be judged.

Yayyyyyy Hap!,
By E. Eaton "pitufina111" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Vol. 1-Learning Basic Skills Through Music (Audio CD)
I love Hap Palmer, I love Hap Palmer, I love Hap Palmer.I am sooooooooo excited to find all this great music that I listened to 20 years ago (my mom was a kindergarten teacher), now for "my" kids - my preschool students. The other reviwer took the words out of my mouth: I learned to see the world in colors because of Hap Palmer. This music is classic, and will go on forever and ever in classrooms everywhere. If I could afford it, I'd buy it all, but since I have to pick and choose, this one is definitely at the top of my list. If you buy this CD, you won't regret it!!!! 25 of 26 people found the following review helpful

Kids Can Learn Through Music and Fun,
By Donna R. Burell - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Vol. 1-Learning Basic Skills Through Music (Audio CD)
Learning Basic Skills Through Music Vol. 1 is an excellent tool to use in learning about the preschoolers world. I work with children ages 18 months through kindergarten and its a very popular CD with every age. Children learn numbers, colors, the alphabet, body awareness and lots more while having a lot of fun through the use of music and movement! Hap Palmer created a wonderful tool for learning when he releases Learning Basic Skills Through Music Vol.1!
