This is a series of children's tapes with each tape having about 30 minutes of songs, repeated in split-track format on side two so that you can sing along to the instruments if you wish. Many of the songs here will be well known - "Kum Ba Yah", "He Is Lord", "God Is So Good", "I Shall Not Be Moved", "The B-l-B-L-E". However, some songs, which I thought would be familiar, were very different to the versions I learned as a child. And that, perhaps, is the main drawback of this collection; people of my generation learned the songs as children 40 years ago, and I'm not sure how useful they are for this generation.

This collection is lovely. I teach sunday school for 3, 4,
and 5 year olds. And, it is difficult to find music that
can reach such a range of development, but this collection
inspires all the students. The music fills them, and they
are all singing enthusiastically. Many of the older
children volunteer to "help" me with the young ones just to
join in. The songs are upbeat, and there is a lot of
toe-tapping and joy!
