Review:

I think that this has to be by far my favorite of the classical albums by Baby Einstein. There was something about the sounds of this album that really appealed to me. It was a sort of whimsical, fun sound and I loved listening to it. I wanted to continue listening to it again and again and have been enjoying endless hours of listening enjoyment with it since opening the case.

This is a fun way to introduce babies and younger children to the fun sounds of classical music, showing them the wide variety of sounds and melodies that can be heard in it. It is a great way to breed and reinforce a music appreciation and is highly entertaining. The music is soothing yet uplifting and is a great way to help your children learn all about classical music.

Since this was one of my favorite sounding albums so far you can bet that I am going to say you must have a copy of it for yourself and for your family. I do recommend this album. If you are going to buy any one copy of a Baby Einstein cd for your listening enjoyment then I would say this one is a great album to consider purchasing.
