I bought this based on the great reviews and all the awards. Wow. Not too sure what the hype is all about. The character voices were so so annoying--I can't imagine listening to this multiple times. Then it jumps wildly from topic to topic. Galileo to Fibonacci sequences to magnetism and Mozart and so on in lightening speed. Nothing is covered well, just quickly, again in those annoying voices.

The worst part for me, though, was the whole reason I bought the CD--I wanted some good skip counting songs. Holy cow. It is the most awkward, contrived, forced sequence you can imagine. It's set to Mozart's Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, and I wish I could sing it for you to show you just how weird the 2's are. Then it skips to sevens and omits the number 28.

I wish I'd saved my money.

Crazy 4 Math is GREAT! We played it in the car on vacation and our two boys (7&9) couldn't get enough of it! They were quizzing our camping neighbors about Leonardo DaVinci, Gallileo, and others. This CD complements Addition Celebration and Multiplication Vacation nicely, one building on and reinforcing the others. When we got home, they wanted to watch the DVD until I couldn't get the songs out of my head. It's great to see our boys excited about Math and motivated to learn. Thanks, Susan and Googol Power!!

This a fun way to learn about math and history. I play it in the car and we all laugh and sing.I love this and all the Googol Products.

This is a great CD, building on the first one. My kids just love listening to it and repeating various world and science facts from it.

I just have one thing to say to the producers: when is the next one coming out? My children are waiting for it!!
