Product Description Parent's Guide to Children’s Media Award! Children's Music Web Award for Best Recording for Pre-Schoolers! Parenting Magazine's Parenting Picks! Film Advisory Board Award of Excellence! A jam-packed recording with 60 traditional and original songs and rhymes within 60 minutes! The project's musical style covers folk, R&B, swing, reggae, rock, and lullabies, showcasing extraordinary kid and grownup performers - all framed within an imaginative Re-Bop tea party skit that will engage and inspire kids from 6 months to 8 years old. To encourage interaction, a beautifully illustrated lyric and rhyme booklet is included. The CD’s richly produced, dawn-to-dusk concept begins, naturally, with waking up and breakfast songs and rhymes, such as Colin McCaffrey’s fiddle-lively "Wake Up Baby, Day’s A-Breaking" and the Mother Goose classic "Pat-A-Cake, Pat-A-Cake." Then it’s tea party preparation time with "To Market, To Market," "Hickory Dickory Dock," and soul sensation Sandra Wright’s wailing "Old Mother Hubbard." The tea party itself is celebrated with gems like "Mary Had A Little Lamb," "I’m A Little Teapot," and a rocking "My Bonnie Lies Over The Ocean." The special day winds down with "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star" and the exquisitely arranged lullaby "All The Pretty Little Horses." This is the first of two releases in coordination with the Mother Goose Programs (TM), an early education literacy and professional development series affiliated with the Library of Congress Center for the Book. "WHAT IS IT? Musical Math & Science" is the second award-winning release in the series.
