If you haven't heard any of
Ralph Covert's music for kids, you're missing out on some surprisingly good music. His highly lyrical and melodic tunes for kids appeal to my 2 yr old as well as my wife and I! You can check out some other catchy tunes at the RalphsWorld.com site. It's hard to explain, but a lot of kids music is simply annoying to listen to, but another Chicago-native friend recommended Ralph's World music to us a few years back and our family are now all huge fans. (I think he's plugged into the Old Town School of Folk Music) I bought this DVD because my son loves the music and now he loves the DVD. It reminds me of a low-cost budget kids video but in a good way -- like how Bozo or Captain Kangaroo seemed low-budget. My wife thought the production seemed amateurish with all the local Evanston Dance Center kids in the video doing silly dances to the music, but I found it endearing. Bottom line, it's catchy music that won't annoy adults, but small kids 2-6 would probably really love this! I'd recommend it as well as the newer DVD, which demonstrates what happens when Disney recognized Ralph's talent, produced some videos, and put him on the Disney Channel.
