"an energetic performer...pop with inventive and fun lyrics that involve listeners...Daycares and kindergarten classrooms will find it a good pick-me-upper."
ReplySome of the most uplifting highly energetic children's music I have heard!
ReplyYou will start off tapping your toe, snapping your fingers then, clapping your hands and finally before you know it you will be dancing the day away. I speak from experience having had this happen to me at one Dan's performances during Week of the Child.
Make a Bridge has some of the most uplifting highly energetic children's music I have heard. The songs have creative fun lyrics that involve everyone who listens. I know children that bath with Dan's CD playing in the bathroom, children that play it while they're going to sleep. I have a friend who listens to Make a Bridge in the car whether her children are with her or not!
Make a Bridge is the kind of music that energizes you on rainy days or during those grey days of winter. Make a Bridge is a CD that should be added to music collections in child care centres, schools and homes.
The best loved CD in the daycare
ReplyWe play this CD every day because the children ask for it and love it so much. The best CD ever for kids!
Impressed by both the original songs and the production values!
ReplyReally enjoyed the albums and was quite impressed by both the original songs and the production values. With that in mind, I’ll start spinning a few of the tracks, specifically “Alphabet Soup”, “Roller Coaster” and “Monkey Time” beginning this week.
