Hours of Listening Pleasure for the Whole Family!,
By Kiki Chin (Montreal, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Jazz For Kids Sing Clap Wiggl (Audio CD)
I bought this CD for my daughters (aged 4 & 7) and it has become a family favourite. Listeners of all ages will be charmed by the authentic jazz renditions of these children's songs. Who better than Ella Fitzgerald and singers of similar stature to introduce kids to jazz? We went on vacation for a month and brought 2 CDs to play in the car, Jazz for Kids was one of them. I can't say enough good things about this CD, except that it is one of the few CDs kids the girls never get tired of listening to. Buy this for your kids, you won't regret it!

the best,

This review is from: Jazz For Kids Sing Clap Wiggl (Audio CD)
We really do not buy children's CDs as all too often they can be quite painful for the parents to sit through - especially for the 100th time. I loved this CD to bits (before it was scratched useless) and would sneak it on with or without the kids and could put it on repeat x infinity. Fun to dance around to but doesn't leave the kids so hyper they are frothing at the mouth. Mellow enough one can listen & relax to as well. I will be buying it again, well worth it!!

The only fault of this album is that it isn't longer!,
By Gwyn Gwyrdd "geek" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jazz For Kids Sing Clap Wiggl (Audio CD)
This is a marvelous collection of jazz songs with quirky lyrics that should tickle any child and their parent's funny bone. As soon as you hear Ella Fitzgerald jump into the hippest version of Old MacDonald you've ever heard, you realize this is no ordinary children's musical album. My personal favorite - and one that I have even heard my daughter's grandparents now singing - is "Ain't Nobody Here But Us Chickens" with some of the greatest lyrics on the album. The Johnny Jumper in our household gets lots of wear and tear during that song. There is only one song - comprised mostly of chicken "bocking" that can be slightly annoying - but other than that the songs compiled here are real gems. Hearing them together like this, it's surprising that they weren't recorded as a children's album originally - they fit so well together. So, enjoy "Yes, We Have No Bananas" and "What a Wonderful World" with your child and be prepared to watch them show interest in other music by these jazz standards. It is a marvelous introduction to a staple genre. So good, in fact, that my only criticism is that it is over far too soon.

Superb!,
By MovedbyMusic - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jazz For Kids Sing Clap Wiggl (Audio CD)
This is a mighty fine cd of true jazz classics for kids; actually these songs are for everyone who has a sense of humor and has an ear for classic jazz vocals.Kids love songs about silly barn animals or simple stories but "The Muffin Man" and "Old McDonald" interpreted by the likes of by Ella Fitzgerald are just a pinnacle listening treat; "Chicken Rhythm" by Slim Gaillard is infectiously adorable; another variety in listening choice is "Doop-Doo-De-Doop (A Doodlin' Song)" by Blossom Dearie and no one of youth or wisdom can go without hearing "What A Wonderful World" by Louis Armstrong one of my personal favorite recordings of all time. No kid young or old will resist moving with the rhythms of these tracks. 20 of 20 people found the following review helpful

highly reccomended AA++ fun and smart!,
By MilesColtrane "milescoltrane" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Jazz For Kids Sing Clap Wiggl (Audio CD)
this is the best children's cd I own because not only do my kids love it but I love it. . . . real and legendary jazz musicians & vocalists, real authentic recordings from the Verve Vault, this ain't some guy down the street trying to make a buck with bad vocals like most of these.why not have your kids listen to the best vocalist of last century: Ella Fitgerald?? Bottom line is that this is a super fun CD, the kids love it, and I get to feel good that I'm also turning them on to "america's music" at the same time. Bravo to Verve - I love the liner notes also where it says these songs were "kid tested" by Verve employees children! way cool ..... |
