I have this one and the Multiplication Vacation. My kids seem to love the songs and story telling. As an adult, I think it cheesy, but my 4 year old asks to listen to googol power and then sings along. So I guess it's working.

Both of my boys really enjoy this CD. It is fun, upbeat and a good reinforcer for the concepts they have been learning.

I BOUGHT THIS CD ON A WHIM. MY LITTLE NEPHEW, CHRIS, AND I LOVE TO SPEND TIME TOGETHER DOING THINGS, AND TRYING TO BE A GOOD UNCLE, I DO MY BEST TO MAKE SURE HE GETS AT LEAST A 'LITTLE' EDUCATION DURING OUR 'OUTINGS'. I HAD NO IDEA HOW GOOD THIS WOULD BE.

I HAD HEARD THAT THIS COMPANY HAD WON AN 'INDY' AWARD FOR BEST CHILDREN'S CD...SO I FIGURED IT WAS A FAIRLY GOOD GUAGE TO GO ON...

ON FIRST LISTEN, YOU ARE CAPIVATED BY THE 'CARTOON' TYPE VOICES USED IN EACH CHARACTER...CHRIS LOVED THAT IMMEDIATELY AND WANTED TO HEAR IT AGAIN AND AGAIN...IT WASN'T UNTIL I HAD HEARD IT FOR THE SECOND TIME THAT I REALIZED 'I' WAS GETTING EDUCATED TOO.

THE LAYERS OF EDUCATION WITHIN EACH SONG IS STAGGERING.

IT'S MATH, HISTORY, GRAMMER. GEOGRAPHY, SCIENCE AND LIFE ALL ROLLED INTO ONE.

LITTLE ONES WILL ENJOY IT FOR THE VOICES AND FUN SONGS (WHICH BY THE WAY, ARE QUITE GOOD...EVEN FOR MY OLD JADED EARS)...YOU WILL PROBABLY FIND YOUR CHILDREN RETURNING TO THIS 'GOOGOL' THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN AS THEY GROW UP....IT'S CHOCK FULL OF TONS OF INFORMATION....

WELL DONE...!!!

TWO THUMBS WAAAAAY UP!!!!!!

SESAME STREET - ....LOOK OUT - THERE'S A NEW KID IN TOWN!!!!!

The music is upbeat and tells a story. I think the kids enjoy this and the multiplication soundtrack more than any of the educational CD's they have. I wish more learning tapes were this creative!

Great music, my daughter loves it. We play it in the car all the time. The best part is, that she is learning Math and having fun.

What a fun & educational collection of songs. The music is high quaility, and very professional. The children I know who have heard the songs really enjoy them. They were singing along to song in no time. What a great way to learn math and other facts.

I just purchased this cd for my son. I was assuming it would be cute little songs to help him memorize his addition facts. Well, this cd has songs but they are mixed with this freaky story telling bits that are just plain weird. We got through the first several songs/stories before turning it off because the narrator/singer's voice (who sounded like he had smoked 5 packs of cigarrettes his entire life) on Stella's rag, actually scared my son and he hasn't wanted to listen to it since.
