Music reviews of Great Big Fun for the Very Little Ones
Music Review: Great Big Fun
Rating: 4 Stars
Tom Chapin always gives parents a safe, fun product that their kids will listen to over and over again. As a music teacher, I like to augment my K-3 curriculum with some of Tom's songs, although the ones in this collection are definitely for a younger audience. For moms and dads of "very little ones", this is a must have for long car trips or any time you want to have a little music in your life. Sing along with the kids and create wonderful memories together.
Description of Great Big Fun for the Very Little Ones
What's the measure of a good children's record? Probably the sing-along factor and educational levels, plus how much it doesn't grate on parental nerves with continued play. Within those criteria, Tom Chapin's Great Big Fun for the Very Little Ones falls somewhere between a good and great record. There are more truly memorable sing-alongs than most young kids' records can muster, including "Uh Oh, Accident," "Zag Zig," and "Jumpalong Jake." Equally enjoyable tunes that educate without talking down to the audience are multiple: "I Would If I Could" proves to be a sound way to reenforce "don't" messages about jumping on the bed, knocking people down, painting on the walls, and other normal miscreant behavior. "You'll Be Sorry" is a warning song to dogs that also works for kids, and "State Laughs" teaches geography while using lots of playful rhymes. Chapin's performances, framed by simple instrumentation that highlights his messages and lyrics, are rich and engaging. And with songs like "Cameling," "Sailing to the Sea," and the classic "Big Rock Candy Mountain" to spur young imaginations, Great Big Fun scores big time. --Martin KellerGeneral CDs
