Have a child.... Get this set! (Cassette and book),
By A Customer
This review is from: Wee Sing Nursery Rhymes and Lullabies (Audio Cassette)
Wonderful collection of nursery Rhymes and lullabies. Includes the old favorites as well as a few I had not even heard of. The voices used are very soothing. I enjoy it. My eight year old enjoys it. And my 9 month old enjoys it. When nothing else seems to be able to calm my infant down for sleep, this works wonders. Great for family time before bed. Times that I am sure my children will remember when they grow up and want to continue with their children.

Off we go to London Town!,

This review is from: Wee Sing Nursery Rhymes and Lullabies (Audio CD)
My Mom and I used to quote that every time we would go on a trip. This is easily one of the best Wee Sing tapes, now available on CD. My cousin recently had her 2nd baby and I bought it for him. And since my Mom had the NERVE to sell our original copy of this one in a garage sale, I just HAD to download it to my iPod before wrapping it.
The nursery rhyme part of it, is also set to a story of Georgie Peorgie, Jack and Jill, and Mary going to King Cole's Birthday party, and on the way meeting other Mother Goose Characters. Here are some interesting facts and trivia on some of the nursery rhymes and lullabies. THERE WAS A LITTLE GIRL. Originallly titled "JEMIMA," was written SURPRISE! SURPRISE! by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow about his daughter about a time that she misbehaved. Everyone knows the first verse. But there are two other verses that are almost never anthologized. One day she went upstairs while her parents unawares. Sitting below were at their meals. She stood upon her head on her little trundle bed, and then began hurraying with her heals. Her Mama heard the noise and thought it was the boys A playing at a combat in the attic. But when she climbed the stair and saw Jemima there She took and she did Spank her most emphatic! LUCY LOCKET If you own this product, you'll remember that the poem is sung to the tune of Yankee Doodle. What you may not know is that Lucy Lockett is the main tune and that the yankees got the melody for Yankee Doodle from Lucy Lockett. GOOD NIGHT TO YOU ALL Isn't really a lullaby, but it was a round dating back to the 19th century often sung by quartets in hotels and such as a finale. EARLY TO BED Was written, believe it or not by Benjamin Franklin. And was used as a way to get children to go to bed on time. SWEETLY SLEEP Is a parody of a Czech Christmas carol called "ROCKING," which you will find on "Wee Sing for Christmas." Either song gets me in a Christmas mood no matter what time of the year it is. All in all, this is a first rate recording and perfect for the young and the young at heart. So if you or anyone you know is about to have a baby, go ahead and buy it. You certainly won't go wrong.

This review is from: Wee Sing Nursery Rhymes and Lullabies BOOK and CD (reissue) (Wee Sing) (Paperback)
My daughters, 6,3 and 7 months all love listening to this CD in the car and at home. The book with the lyrics is great for Moms who don't know all the words.
I'm buying another one for my oldest's classroom!
