From what I have heard and read, if your kids love music,they they will thoroughly enjoy this CD World Playground
The reviews for this have been great and many parents have said that their kids love listening to the music and that they do too. There are several CD’s in the Putumayo Collection, but this one in particular has tracks from countries such as Africa, Australia, Europe, the Caribbean, South America and North America.
Here’s a little more about the CD:
Even if the multicontinent angle strikes you as too catholic, it bears reiterating that this is a "playground" session, a collection that begins with a Senegalese in-line dance and continues through "Mardi Gras Mambo," a bongo-playing French monkey, and much more. And while the songs are playful, there’s nothing in the way of tossed-off music. It’s all first-rate, with the artists at the top of their games. –Andrew Bartlett
If you are looking for ways to share other cultures with your children and give them a taste of different types of music, then this CD would make a great addition to your collection of music.
