Great Format for Listening in the Car

"While this isn't the usual Raffi format, my son loves it. He is 8 and slightly autistic. He recently discovered Raffi music from an old CD that we had from when our teenagers were little, and has absolutely fallen in love with all things Raffi. We checked out 3 CD's from the library including this one, and this is now his favorite. I think it appeals to him on several levels--the songs are very well-done, the banter inbetween appeals to his funny little sense of humor, and the whole CD is like listening to a radio station, except it's silly and "his" radio station. I recommend this for older pre-schoolers who are old enough to understand the humor of the talking bits."

Raffi For Adults - Think Outside the Box

"This album is a bit more sophisticated than your standard Raffi fare. It's for Mom and Dad as much as for the kids. It combines inventive spoken word pieces mixed in with Raffi's always wonderful songs. The word things are probably over the head of many children, but Mom and Dad love them. The Panel of Silly Experts makes us laugh every time, even though we know the jokes. And the Jazz Dog keeps things spicy with her yips and growls. We keep this one in regular rotation in the car, and to our 20 month old daughter it's as good as every other Raffi record. It's kept us moving down the highway on many a road trip."
