Backyardigans Groove to the Music

The editorial review is ridiculous...either she's never watched the Backyardigans, she doesn't have children, or she simply doesn't appreciate a wide diversity of music.

The fact that they use real children's voices for these characters was one of the most appealing aaspects of the show, but what won over the whole family is the wide range of music genres that are covered, such as swing, country, hip-hop, scat, rock, opera - just to name a few...

Contrary to what the editorial review states, you could play this CD over and over (which is typical of little kids) and not get sick of it...

With the questionable content of most popular music these days, it's nice to have the Backyardigans to play for your entire family, and be able to educate your little ones on using their imaginations while learning valuable lessons to music from so many time periods and cultures.

My kids LOVE this show and all the music. My 7yr old still enjoys watching the show, and my 3yr old can't get enough of the music! These kids can SING, and not in that annoying cutesy Kidzbop or Barney sort of way. This is completely tolerable music. If you have to play kid's music, you'll appreciate the talents of the singers on this CD.

As for the songs, I personally like this CD slightly better than the first one. My 3yr old loves to boogie to "Shake Your Body"!!! And I especially appreciate that my kids are exposed to many genres of music, in a fun and extremely listenable (if that's even a word) way.

Adults are unlikely to go insane with repeated listenings of this CD.

And anyone who doesn't know The Backyardigans should NOT be writing an editorial review of this product! This CD epitomizes the fun, creativity and innovation of the TV show.

My daughter loves listening to "her" music in the car. After several months of cringing to the myriad of kids' music we had on a mix CD (Barney, Little People, etc) and banging my head against the steering wheel at the repeated requests for her lullaby music (seriously, lullaby music in the car = sleepy driver and possible car accidents!), I knew I HAD to get this CD! I was not wrong!

The Backyardigans is about the only kids' show that I can admit to WANTING to watch. The songs on this CD bring familiar episodes to mind and we all (even Daddy!) have a blast singing together. And even when I'm not in the mood to be bouncing and singing (as it so...Read more
