"The Merry Goes 'Round" is Jewel's second children's album (the first was 2009's "Lullaby") and is part of the Fisher-Price Music Series. It's fitting that she is releasing this album just weeks after her first child, son Kase Townes was born. She said that she wrote the songs with lessons she'd like her son to learn in mind. Jewel's voice is so sweet and beautiful it's perfect for children's songs. Her acoustic guitar sounds awesome (as always) and compliments her voice beautifully. Comprised of both original songs and covers of children's classics, Jewel proves yet again that she is versatile and talented in whatever genre she chooses to sing. A few highlights include "Just Like Penguins Do," a beautiful song with a honky tonk vibe. I love "Oh! Susanna," a classic children's song that sounds wonderful with Jewel's country-folk touches. I literally got goose bumps when I listened to "She'll Be Comin' Round the Mountain." Her voice is so pure and elegant I couldn't help being touched by her singing. I realize long time fans of hers might want her to return to her "Pieces of You" days, but I really love this album. Babies, toddlers, children, and even adults will be able to appreciate these songs. Highly recommended!

I like Jewel and looked forward to purchasing this CD for my grandchildren. I suppose the appeal of music is subjective-- in the "ears" of the beholder--and this CD just doesn't appeal to me. I haven't presented to my grandchildren yet, but based on the lyrics of several songs, I don't think the CD will appeal to them either. One troubling thing about the lyrics is the use of incorrect English, especially in songs for children. I appreciate that Amazon has a wonderful song preview option and I highly recommend listening to that to determine if this CD appeals to you. I regret that I purchased this in a local brick and mortar store where I did not have that option or I would have probably bypassed it.

I can freely admit that I love this album. The original songs are upbeat and singable with catchy tunes and clever lyrics. This is the type of children's music that's enjoyable for both children and adults. Highly recommended!
