Music reviews of Time to Sing!

Music Review: Speech Pathology/ apraxia of speech helping tool?
Rating: 4 Stars

I was given this CD by a friend who performs on it. According to the liner notes, it was developed with help from a Speech Pathologist who was having trouble finding children's music that could facilitate speech. It may be the only one of it's kind, I don't know. Parents of children with speech delays might find this CD helpful. This CD should really be marketed for that purpose.
First of all, the musicians and singers on this CD aren't the run-of the-mill, like so many children's cds. They are a professional musicians and singers. The versions of the songs are a bit unusual to listen to- because the tempos have been slowed down, way down. Unfortunately, you can't listen to samples of the songs on Amazon.
Below I describe how I fell each selection sounds:
1)wheels- beautiful voice, sounds like something from Kindermusik collection.
2)Aiken Drum- Western style. I suppose you could do the ASL signs for spaghetti, meat ball, cheese, and Pizza to it easily
3)I love You- soft and slow, not like Barney version
4)Shake your Sillies- Because of the slow tempo, this song doesn't click, shaking "slowly" doesn't seem to feel right. Nancy Cassidy's version is probably the best I have heard, they should have left this off the cd because it just sounds strange.
5)1,2 Buckle...-counting w/ music, you could do gestures/home signs for this.
6)Teensy weensy spider- This reminded me a lot of the songs on the Storytelling CD from Songs for Learning collection from Newbridge Publishing. Soft, sweet and slow
7)Hokey Pokey- left and right, good instrumentalists
8)Wibbly Wobbly-I understand where the Speech Pathologist is going with this, but it is very heavy on the Pittsburgh accent. Bobby is now Baw-bee, Tommy is now Tawh-mee.
9)Alphabet- traditional
10)Jack n Jill- Great voice, reminds me of Kindermusik CD which are good
11)Twinkle- traditional, pretty sounding
12)Happy and Know it- This is not a jump around version. It is a sit down with mom and dad and let's go over you sounds song. carribean style, beautiful instruments and voices. Probably helpful to very little ones w/ speech delay.
13)Baby Bumblebee- big on the rhyming, verses I hadn't before heard, but kids might enjoy laughing along with. Tango style.
14)Pop! Goes...This reminded me of Burnadette Peters. Body part ID, left/ Right
15)I'm a teapot-Great big male voice, lots of strings
16)Bingo- I know the purpose of this CD is to SLOW down the tempo, but this lacks the energy to keep children interest. There is so much time between letters, they forget what they were spelling.
17)You are Special- Ode to Fred Rogers. Neighbor Aber can hold his own. I personally believe if anyone is going to fill Mr. Roger's sneakers, it is going to be him.
18)Apples and Bananas- Has a slow tempo- this song could actually have Cued Speech done to go along with it. Which could be a tool to learning all of the vowel hand positions of cued speech.
19)5 little Frogs-perfect fromation of syllables, #'s , use of adjectives
20)Old McD-latin style, upbeat
21)Mr Sun-Probably the all time best version of this song I have heard. The singer and musicians are excellent.
22)Head and Tummy- Good sit on mom and dad's lap and do together song.
23)10 Little Indians-I thought the PC police outlawed songs like this. It's a chant with counting. They could have said "crayons" instead of indians. The music behind the singing is however very good. The singer sounds a lot like Tom Green, sorry!
24)5 Little Monkeys-chant- good background music
25)Sing!- Sesame Street song, nice. Good wrap up of CD.

I know that some of Pittsburgh's most talented went in on this CD. I really think it suits it's purpose well in helping children separate the speech sounds, but the Speech Pathologist really should have had some one else sing the selections he sang. The musicans and trained talented singers make this CD.

Finally, I tried to use this in a preschool setting and it really didn't work out. It is much better suited to at home listening. I am not a speech patologist, but I know children well. I hope this CD benefits the families it is geared toward.
