Editorial Reviews

Lullaby, The Journey Begins is a collection of sung poetry containing 17 original musical compositions and arrangements. The music will touch a deep emotional chord in children and all those who care for them.

"The Journey Begins" is a song written for adoptive parents, that all parents can relate to it as it says: “I hope your dreams will all come true, the way mine did when I saw you.”

This collection enriches children throughout their stages of development: young infants drift off to relaxing melodies, and toddlers are absorbed by vocabulary-enriching words. Tired parents are soothed: the words reminding them of the joy of parenting while the music renews their spirit.

“Wynken, Blynken, and Nod”, an American favorite by poet Eugene Field, sails off in a new dreamlike setting. A whimsical cowboy theme launches his “Fly-Away Horse” into the night skies, and a gingerbread dog and chocolate cat cavort in the branches of the “Sugar-Plum Tree”.

This CD will be thoroughly enjoyed and played often.

This review is from: Lullaby: The Journey Begins (AE) (Audio CD)

These wonderful lullabies will help anyone to stop and smell the roses(hug their kids)! They are not just for children. The whole family can slow down for a much needed break and your whole house can, at least temporarily, be endowed with peace.The music is tranquil and relaxing and the thoughtful lyrics are very comforting and filled with love.
As a busy stay home dad, father of two, president of a nursery school and kindergarten class parent I must say that this music is a great reminder of how important some peaceful down time with your kids is. So, between all of the rushing around and hectic parenting, I would highly recommend some of this peaceful music to all of you busy parents and kids -it's just what we need!
