Editorial Reviews

From Parents' Choice®

Feeling a little tense? A bit frazzled? Here's one sweet solution: This quiet, lovely music, interwoven with and wrapped around the sounds of ocean waves, soft rain, distant bird calls and other organic sounds, is remarkably soothing. You may not want to use it as traveling music, though. The wordless, melodic arrangements for flute, oboe, piano, strings and other instruments, and the slow pace, hushed pauses, and subtle nature sounds beg to be listened to in a reclining position, where you and yours can nod off in peace and comfort. A 1998 Parents' Choice® Gold Award.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simply the Best, June 30, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Growing Minds with Music: Nature Sounds CD (Audio CD)

I have to be honest that I am just not a fan of classical music and have never been able to relax to those nature cds....BUT this CD has some kind of magic power to it. Twin Sisters Productions has found just the right formula for putting together a collection of relaxing music. No matter how rough the day has been after just a few minutes of this CD (or any other in the Growing Minds with Music series) I can just feel the tension disappear. A collection of music that I would highly recommend to all.

5.0 out of 5 stars Peaceful and Soothing for baby and mom, March 15, 2004

We love this CD! Understanding that most professionals believe that babies begin to hear at seven months gestation, I started playing this CD every night as I would go to sleep, when I was seven months pregnant. After my daughter was born, I continued to play this CD for her naptimes and bedtime. It rarely failed to sooth baby (and mom) to sleep. I am now expecting my second baby, and I'm starting the whole thing all over again. Let's hope this works as well for baby #2 as it did for baby #1 ! I think I'll go put this CD on...I need a nap :)

This review is from: Growing Minds with Music: Nature Sounds CD (Audio CD)

I was recently in a treatment center, which was highly stressful. In the evenings, there were times when all of the patients would try relaxation techniques after especially hard days. One person I knew brought this CD and played it for us. I've never found an instrumental CD that actually relaxes me, though I have certainly heard my share of music that tries to incorporate ocean sounds and bird calls for the sake of relaxation. But this CD is different. Finally, I was able to forget the trials of every day and find strength for the next. I couldn't wait to get home and buy my own copy. This WILL be worth your money, I can assure you!
