We received this as a gift, the 2nd Putumayo CD we'd received. I LOVE listening to this with my 3 month old. The songs are fun and upbeat and so much more interesting than most baby music!

This a great cd with catchy tunes from countries all over Africa. It isn't all in English, either, as a previous reviewer claimed. The song "Jambo Bwana", for instance, is in Swahili and is a popular song in Kenya. An interesting side note is that it is often used as a tool to teach non-native Speakers Swahili. "Laba Laba" is sung in Yoruba, one of many languages spoken in Nigeria. If you want to expose your kids to other languages and cultures in a way that they will love, this is a great way to do it.

This is the perfect CD for the whole family to enjoy in the car. Our children from ages 1 to 13 love it. One year old Eleanor can hardly speak English, but she can sing along to these colorful, rhythmic songs from all parts of Africa. Listening to this CD is a truly enjoyable experience and it is hard not to sing along. Buy it, you'll adore it forever.
