"Tiburon", one of the "Top 15 songs of 2006" - kidsmusicthatrocks.com, January 1, '07

Most of the songs are made for movement:

• "WHEELS ON THE BUS", "TIBURON" & "I AM A PUMPKIN" - pantomime.
• "IF YOU'RE HAPPY AND YOU KNOW IT" – buy Josh Levine for Kids!
• "THE HOKEY POKEY" mambo.

There are also some great songs for teaching about diversity and tolerance:

• "A REAL BOUQUET" is a poem by Edith Segal set to music by Josh.

• "THIS LAND IS YOUR LAND", by Woody Guthrie.

Plus:

• "THE ALPHABET SONG" mambo.

  • great, unique music
    author: Frances Schultz

    I love this CD because it's children's music with a Latin rhythm (which I love) and English lyrics. It really sets a happy mood. I only wish the CD were longer.

  • Delightful!

  • Awesome music & songs

    Awesome album. Josh Levine's songs and music are great. Both my 9 month old and I groove to them.

  • A great tape for all kids, even grown up ones.
