Veggie Tales

Need a fun CD to pass the time in the car? Veggie Tales Bob and Larry Sing the 80s is it!! I remember all these songs from growing up:

Veggie Tales,80s

  • Gourds Just Want To Have Fun
  • La Bamba
  • Everybody Have Fun Tonight
  • Walking On Sunshine
  • Footloose

  • We Got The Beat
  • Walk Like An Egyptian
  • The Power of Love
  • Don’t Worry Be Happy

If you’d like to listen to a sample of the songs you can visit: Amazon or Big Idea

Walk like an Egyptian was one of my favorites! As always, Bob and Larry throw in their own funny lyrics and side notes during the song. While singing “La Bamba” the French Peas say “I don’t know what I’m saying!” During “Everybody have fun tonight” Bob says “Wang What?” “Larry, I don’t get this!” I just love listening to all the side notes in Veggie Tales CDs. It’s the kind of things that make Moms and Dads be able to listen without wanting to rip their ears off. :)

The Outer Toons CD Review

August 19, 2010 By Leave a Comment

Are your children interested in learning more about music? The Outer Toons is a great band for them! A little bit about them from their website:

The Outer Toons is a band that has dedicated itself to entertaining, inspiring, and educating children, families and the world with quality music set in a family-friendly, fun environment.
Original music and cartoon themes make their live show both educational and entertaining. From performing in schools to theme parks to venues throughout the country, The Outer Toons plan to give back to what they feel is the most important aspect of education: MUSIC.

The Outer Toons Band

The Outer Toons Band, the world's only cartoon band, playing cartoon music and themes spanning the history of cartoons.

The music on this album is so fun and upbeat. To preview any of the songs, visit them at CD Baby. Little man dances away to the song Powerhouse. My favorite is Beethoven’s Rhapsody. I love that they not only teach you about Reading Rhythms, but about The Saxophone and that No Math= No Music. Music is very important in our household. My husband’s family is extremely musically talented and I played clarinet, sax, percussion and sang in choir. Both my husband and I marched drum corps. That’s what led me to find The Outer Toons. Ricky McDoogle was my instructor in Southwind Drum and Bugle Corps. Another cool thing about The Outer Toons is if you live in the Central Florida area, they teach music lessons! I suggest getting children into music early. In order to do that, you can win a copy of The Outer Toons Volume I! Please help support child friendly, educational music!

Buy It:

You can buy The Outer Toons Volume I or a cool T-shirt from The Outer Toons shop

Don’t forget to “Like” The Outer Toons on Facebook (tell them Frosted Fingers sent you)

Since there were no entries into this contest, I will include this cd in a prize pack from Frosted Fingers later on. It’s a great CD so I’m wanting someone to enjoy it!!


    Disclosure:  Thanks to The Outer Toons for providing the CDs for review and giveaway.

    Recess Monkey The Final Funktier Review

    May 21, 2010 By 9 Comments

    The Final Funktier Review

    Photobucket

    Recess Monkey is getting ready to release their sixth album called “The Final Funktier” on June 15. Strap on you moon boots and get ready for some fast paced, out of this world, funk grooves and drumbeats!

    Recess Monkey is the acclaimed children’s music band from Seattle, WA!
    …three elementary school teachers who make kid’s music that grows out of their days in their classrooms. They continue to be praised across the country for singable, dancable songs that parents enjoy as much as their kids. MIndy Thomas from SiriusXM’s Kids Place Live says, “These guys are able to tap into elementary school so well that it’s like they never left. In this never-ending nationwide talent show of kid and family music, they are most definitely at the top.” Says Stefan Shepherd of Zooglobble.com, “Recess Monkey just keeps turning out album after album with pop nuggets, as if we’d just discovered that the Beatles had recorded a ton of kids music 40+ years ago.” Cookie Magazine says, “This Seattle trio knows how to get kids excited.” This children’s music band isn’t just for kids!

    I’ve been given the chance to review “The Final Funktier” with my kids. They say the CD’s music is good for kids from 3-7. It has a playtime of 34 minutes. My kids are 1, 3, and 5 and they all LOVE it. My son asks for the Elevator music CD all the time in the car. (There’s a space elevator in the middle of the album!)
    Photobucket The songs on the album are:

    1. Liftoff!
    2. Moon Boots
    3. Jet Pack
    4. Science Fair
    5. Ukulalien
    6. My Brother is a Satellite
    7. Beat-Box-a-Robot
    8. Sunglasses
    9. Space Elevator Music
    10. The Galax Sea
    11. Booster Seat
    12. How Do You Build a Robot?
    13. Constellation Conga
    14. Black Hole in My Room
    15. One Tiny Light

    I’m a fan of Funk music so listening to this CD is as enjoyable to me as it is to the kids. I think my favorite song is Beat-Box-a-Robot (do, do, do, do, do, do, dooo.)  The songs are all catchy and fun. I find myself singing them all the time. I lost something and started singing a line from “Black Hole in My Room.”

    To catch a sneak peek of the songs on the album head on over to Recess Monkey Town. While you’re there, fan them on Facebook to hear the latest updates from the band. You can also sign up for their mailing list while you’re there. Recess Monkey is coming to the Taste of Chicago in July and I’m going to do my best to bring my kids to see them. A day on the train and listening to one of their new favorite bands?! Should be a great day!

    You can pre-order  The Final Funktier through Amazon.
