Product Description
Amazon.com essential recording
Though recorded in the 1970s, this classic Raffi album is still one of the children's troubadour's bestsellers. The gentle, joyful style; simple musical arrangements; and easy-to-follow up-front vocals have made Singable Songs for the Very Young a favorite among tiny tots, parents, and preschool teachers. By combining traditional songs like "The More We Get Together," "Down by the Bay," and "Going to the Zoo" with Raffi originals like "I Wonder If I'm Growing," "Peanut Butter Sandwich," and a jazzy near-cover, "Old MacDonald Had a Band," the album has a familiar feel while giving young children the opportunity to learn new songs and rhythms. Other notable titles include the interactive "Brush Your Teeth," "Five Little Pumpkins," and the tongue-twisting "Willoughby Wallaby Woo." --Deborah Moore

Unforgettable songs from my childhood,
By
This review is from: Singable Songs For The Very Young (Audio CD)
Singable Songs for the Very Young was originally released in 1976. I was born two years after that, and this album (cassette tape actually) was a staple in my family. I can remember my younger sisters and I belting out "Must be Santa" or "Mr Sun." in the back of the car on long trips.We also had the record for "Corner Grocery Store" and I can clearly remember dancing around the living room and singing along with my sisters to the silly songs on that album. Wanting to share these songs with my own children, I got Singable Songs for my two year old son. As it turns out, he loves the songs too and we have a lot of fun together singing and dancing. His favourite song is "Bumping Up and Down in my Little Red Wagon." I've tried out a lot of different children's music from the library, and the great majority of it sounds terrible. Raffi on the other hand has a warm, gentle voice and his simple, joyful tunes appeal to both children and adults alike. We'll be going on a very long car trip next month and you'd better believe we'll be bringing Raffi along!

Excellent as always,
This review is from: Singable Songs for the Very Young (Audio CD)
Very satisfied with Amazon's service and the product "Raffi - Singable Songs for the Very Young". It was a Halloween treat for my 3 1/2 yr old grandson and he is hooked already. The drive to and from day care is a little less stressful now!

My daughters grew up on Raffi records and now I just started playing the CD for my grandaughters 15 and 17 months old. They are loving it. I even remember all the songs and all the words from 30 years ago. Thank you Raffi for such wonderful songs to enjoy first with my children and now with my grandaughters.
