What's in Our CD Player

1. Smart Symphonies:  a little something for the baby from Enfamil with the claim that the chosen classical music pieces will "stimulate your baby's brain development".  Not sure about the brain development thing, but it is calming and my older kids enjoy trying to beat each other to identifying the composer of each piece.
2. The Power of One by Israel Houghton:  recommended by a friend, but not particularly my style of music.  The kids love it though and it gets them dancing and acting goofy in the living when it is too cold or late to go outside.
3. Spanish Bop:  Put out by Children's Music World, this collection entertains the kids with Spanish and English versions of songs.  Although Spanish is not one of our official "classes" this year, I try to keep some Spanish CDs and storybooks around as an informal introduction to the language.
4. Mr. Bach Comes to Call:  a title in the classical kids collection that includes lots of factual information about Mr. Bach told in a fictional story that my kids LOVE.  It also includes portions of several of Bach's popular pieces.  My kids are big fans of anything in the Classical Kids collection.
5. Offerings by Third Day:  a little something for Mom when all chaos breaks loose and I just need to throw back my head, sing, and remember that my hope is in Him!
