This CD is the best. I use it DAILY in our morning "Circle Time" with my Ex Ed classroom. The children (of all abilities and levels) LOVE it and really get into the movements and words of the songs. Tony Chestnut & 5 Little Monkeys are their favorites.

I have used this CD for the last year and a half for my 2 year old son, my class of four year olds and now my new class of five year olds. All ages, including grownups who are tired of Barney will enjoy this album. I am ordering 2 more copies for my self and a number of copies for friends.

What a wonderful surprise this CD is! I am a Preschool teacher and had previously found the 'basic' words to the title song on-line. It was sung to a slightly different tune than presented on the cd, but none the less, is a MAJOR hit with my students! It's a play on words from the classic head-shoulders-knees & toes. That particular song is a bit to advanced for the special needs children but there are MANY others that are appropriate! The kids LOVE the Swimming Song & The Mirror song, the latter being a cool down, more quiet song, with FUN movement!! I would definetly say "Add it to your collection"! I also purchased Learning Station's newest CD, Physical Ed. It too is equally good, but it is physical be prepared!! It is also geared more to the older 3's and even 4 year old students.

I had to buy the CD version since my cassette wore out. Every song is great and kids of all ages enjoy singing as well as movin' and groovin' to the beat. The title song TONY CHESTNUT is the favorite among the younger set. It's a wonderful play on words for the body parts; toe-knee-chest-nut (head) etc. I have successfully taught this song to children as young as 3 to the ripe age of 8. Parents enjoyed learning the words and motions from their children. The rest of the songs are wonderful too. I had the luck of seeing the Learning Station in person a few years back for a Musical Workshop and it was well worth the time put it in. I recommend the rest of their CDs as well.

This CD is great, especially for children 2-5. The 2 and 3 y.o.'s love "How Much Is that Doggie in the Window." I use puppets during the song and they take turns manipulating the puppets, wagging the tails etc. The 4 and 5 y.o.'s think the "Shiny Clean Dance" music is fun and they love to dance to it. The Spirit Song is another favorite, a bouncy tune and easy to follow. This is a 5 rating amongst my collection of dance music.

Tony Chestnut and Fun Time Action Songs offers plenty of opportunities for getting students up and active while learning and having fun. The songs are upbeat and varied with endless possibilities for movement. These songs will easily fit into all aspects of my curriculum. To limit them to music time only would be a waste.

Wonderful product for big kids(adults) and little kids! So glad I purchased it! Fun for all!

This worked really well as a group activity for my pre-k/k students. They couldn't get too silly or loud because then they could not hear the words. They ask for the CD whenever we have to stay inside because of weather.

I love this CD. The kids I teach love it too. Fast delivery, awesome buy.

This is a great cd both for teachers and for parents to use with their children.
