We play it nonstop in the car

"This is one children's CD you can play in the car and actually ENJOY time and time again! The tracks are great - they send a really good message, and invite all passengers to sing along and bop to the tunes!
My 2 1/2 year old knows most of the words to "Baby, Won't you use good manners?", "In Our Circle", and "Bouncing, Hopping, Wiggling". Yesterday he picked up "The Wind is Laughing"!
I guess not so surprisingly I have found myself humming to "I Am Worm, I Am Strong" and "I'm the Engine on the Train" - long after I've left the car in its parking space at work.
This CD will be one you'll like from the get-go and will want to share with all of your kids' friends and parents!"
And mom and dad'll like it too

"My four year old and seven year old kids both love this CD. Flemming rolls together Beatles-inspired melodies, Byrds-like harmonies, Tom Petty's rock-n-roll edge and a sense of humor all his own to make music that will get everyone hopping and giggling. There are dancing tunes like "Shimmy, Shimmy, Shimmy," "Slither like a snake," and "Rug surfing" that'll have your kids twisting in every imaginable position. I especially liked "Baby won't you use good manners," a stomper which cracked me up while getting the important point across. There is also a tenderness to Flemming's music that will make you and your kids trust the humor and want to hear more. Doug Flemming's "In Our Circle" is a real find. Your kids will want to hear it over and over, and, here's the really good part: you'll actually like playing it for them."
