Blog Tour: THAT BABY DVD AND CD
I'm a sucker for some decent kid's music and television shows. As a work from home parent 3 - 4 days a week, I need more than 15 minutes of work time (and a bit of me time when I can grab it). So, I was delighted when MotherTalk offered up a cool bundle of music and a DVD centered on children (yep, I use the television to babysit every now and again).Here's the details, right from THAT BABY website:
That Baby DVD and That Baby CD are groundbreaking products full of fun music and visuals for kids age 0-5. Rather than relying on the old nursery rhymes or music box tones of other kids’ videos, these really rock. We’ve taken great songs – songs that you may have sung at camp or put on a mix tape in your youth – and reworked them with fantastic new acoustic and vocal arrangements.As soon as this package arrived my almost 6 year old boy was chomping at the bit to watch the DVD. It's a movie. With a kid on the cover, how can he NOT be getting a new "show" to watch. And that he did. Even though, it was really centered on a younger audience. A bit older than my 8 month old daughter. Though she found the collages and puppets definitely pleasing. Even after we played it three times.
Combining the music of artists like Fleetwood Mac, Natalie Merchant, Joni Mitchell, and The Pretenders with rich, colorful visuals, That Baby DVD is sure to bring a smile to the face of the child in your life. The CD features all the music from the DVD, plus three bonus songs written by Bob Marley, The Beatles, and Paul Simon.
The CD however, has been an even bigger splash for our frequent car rides to pre-school and back. The Kiddo hums and sings songs as we gander the few miles to his day care. And I know he likes it because he requests the music. Even more than his Alvin and the Chipmunks CD. Which, in my opinion, scores this music set a huge 5 stars. I can almost hear nails on the chalkboard each time Alvin launches into a solo.
So THAT BABY has captured the hearts of my kids. Mostly the boy, since he can at least tell me he likes it. Though The Peanut definitely doesn't fuss as much with it on. But she's like that with any music right now.
My son's only complaint, "Why didn't they put a faster song first. Like Pony Boy."
Yeah, my kid's a Springsteen fan. Gotta love 'em!
