Yes, it's Silly--but kids LIKE Silly!May 18, 2010 As a mom and preschool teacher, I thought I'd give this CD a try. I love the classics myself and I want my kids to be exposed to them as well.
Yes, some of the songs can be silly...but guess what, kids LIKE silly! It is not a classic CD to relax to my any means--it is a great way to expose them to this great selection of music. It is fun and up beat. My 1 year old always bobs along to it. And my three year old is already singing some of the lyrics. It also gives us a fun activity to bond over--we talk about the music a lot. She has also started comparing the music to what she has heard from her Barbie Swan Lake movie and the Beauty and the Beast play we saw.
I personally love that it creates a story for each song--which is what lots of people miss when listening to classic music. I am hoping that this will provide them an excellent example--and they'll eventually start to create their own stories when they hear classic pieces.
We've really enjoyed this CD as a family. It is not your typical classical CD--but it is so much fun! So give it a try...I doubt you'll be disappointed!
Great Lessons With Classical MusicDec 21, 2009 I have really enjoyed listening to these CDs with words to Classical Music. Being a trained classical musician this is such a fun way to teach Classics to the younger generation. Keep it up!!!
Terrific music for the whole familyDec 15, 2009 Very good music; very fun lyrics. Good way to introduce little ones to the classics!
wonderful for any ageJul 29, 2009 My kids, 4 1/2 & 11 yrs., love all these 4 sing-along symphonies, and the first one is their favorite.

The entire family loves this CDMay 12, 2009 From 4 years old to 40 years old, each of us enjoys Beethoven's Wig. We have #1 and #2 and I could not tell you which the kids enjoy more - but I do have a slight preference for #1. I'm online now getting ready to purchase #3 and #4 will be for Christmas. I'm also buying #1 for a baby shower gift. My friend is not particularly "into" classical music but she laughed a good bit listening to our CD's then she asked for them for her soon-to-be child.
