[.ca] Corner Grocery Store and Other Singable Songs

Amazon.com essential recording:
When you play this CD's title cut to a preschool class, you'll immediately know by the wild gales of laughter followed by multiple requests to "play it again!" that you have a hit on your hands. The wonderful visuals of "cheese walking on its knees" and "beans trying on some jeans," inspired by Raffi's lyrical adaptation of the traditional tune, are sure to tickle young funny bones. Children will also enjoy adding their own verses to the menu of "Going on a Picnic," steppin' high with "There Was a Girl from France," and clapping along with Raffi's cover of the Woody Guthrie animal dance tune, "Jig Along Home." --Deborah Moore

Special Music to Share with a Child.:
This is special music to share with a child. I remember my children laughing and singing to silly songs like "Boom Boom (Aint it Great to be Crazy)," "Grocery Store," and "Here Sits a Monkey." Children really respond to this music. It's so full of life and energy. Some of the songs really understand children: what they are like and what they like. This is great music to share with a child. It gets better and better the more we listen to it.

Silly, Happy Classics!:
My children have listened to this CD for years and still play it. It's great for toddlers to second grade kids and adults. You will get your money's worth. Many of the songs are very funny. Some are just happy tunes that remind me of the better days of being a child. I like this CD. My children love it. All of the songs are great. I would call it a carefully made collection of likeable classics. Thank you Raffi! This is a classic!

Raffi's 3rd album:
this is Raffi's wonderful 3rd album that includes such interesting songs as "Le Zombies a la Loup-Gerous" (zombies and werewolves) Anansi (about a mischevious spider) and my favorite a kids version of the old folk song "Goodnight Irene". Enjoy.

Funny and Fun! My Favorite!:
This is an AWESOME CD! Corner Grocery Store has funny songs. It has some songs for older kids like me and some songs for younger kids. We still listen to this in the car. I used to listen to it alot. It has some songs for everyone. My mom and dad like it. This was my favorite CD. I recommend it for any kid from toddler to maybe first grade.

Five year old's favorite. Great for adults, too.:
We just bought this CD for our five year old, and it's now her favorite Raffi CD. This CD is a little more up-tempo than the first two. This is great music for kids and adults. It never gets old, and I find myself singing along, too. Ha ha! We love all our Raffi CD's, and Raffi's stuff is far superior than the other commecial stuff, like Barney and Disney. If you have a chance to see him in concert, do it. We did a few years ago, and it was really great. Check out the Raffi in Concert CD.
