We received this cd as a gift and have used it every night since my daughter was 3 months, she is now 27 months. It has become a part of our bedtime ritual. It has also come in handy with late night/early morning wakings - we put on this music and it helps to put our girl back to sleep.

The songs themselves, while sweet and often touching, will probably never win any awards. The real winner is the second half of the cd, which is all instrumental. The music is gentle and lasts for approx. 35 minutes. This portion of the cd is a perfect way to end the bedtime routine. I plan to buy a second copy for our next child. Give it a try, you may become tired of the songs but your child will find them soothing.

I am a huge fan of the label, Someday Baby. I own "A Child's Gift of Lullabyes" and "Rock-A-Bye Collection, Volume 1". I even bought one of their cassettes under the Target "Lullabye Club" packaging. I think that all three of the above publications are absolutely wonderful. And I was thrilled at the thought of having equally beautiful music that expressed a father's love. However, this CD arrived today and I disliked it immediately. At first I thought, "Oh gosh, it sounds kind of like country". But then I thought, "That's not it......I like a little country now and then. This is just BAD!"

Perhaps my daughter will like it. That is, after all, the real goal. But I am incredibly disappointed. This music will not keep me humming like the other CDs. Sorry, Someday Baby, I think that you really missed the bar that you set with your other work.

This is one of the best sets of lullabyes I've heard. My son is 1 1/2 now and we have been playing it every night since he was born. This is his favorite bedtime music and it is a tape we can both listen to over and over.

My son is 4 months old, and I really play this CD as much for me as for him :-) and I have to say I really enjoy it a lot. It has very touching, thoughtful, loving songs on it, and even after hearing it a couple dozen times, I still get choked up on "Even More" ... every time. The songs do a great job of expressing the love a father has for his child. It's a great CD to pop in and just play in the background, not just at night. I'm really glad we bought it.
