And if that isn't enough- all of the tracks are repeated in split track for your karaoke pleasure. There is a lot of substance to this album. It runs just under an hour-- plenty of time to work out the sillies and move on to... nap time! (Insert diabolical giggle here).
The original songs on the album work in well with the standard favorites. "I Can Wiggle" is a fun, up-beat tune that your child will love. The music lends itself to jumping around, shaking about, and "controlled" chaos in general.
I use this album for a Saturday Silly Story time that I do for a local bookstore. The kids absolutely love it! Even the shy youngsters that cling to their parents knee catch the beat and are out dancing around before they know it!
My favorite song is probably "Down By the Bay". It is really catchy-- so beware, you will be humming this under your breath in the elevator at work and people will look at you kind of funny... But hey- it is tons better than that abysmal "I Love you"/Barney song. Isn't having children about sacrifice anyways?
You can find this album in various children's shops everywhere. If you don't treasure the hunt, you can also order at www.twinsisters.com. Coincidentally you can also listen to audio clips and check out all of the other Twin Sisters goodies there.
