"The warning i'm going to give is also the best reason to buy it! If you play this in your car for your 3 year old, you will never hear any other music besides this CD EVER again! Keep them happy! Buy it now! of course, there are one or two throw away tracks, but after the 20-something song, no one notices!"
The Best of Its Kind!

"Sara Hickman adores children (especially her own!), and that love shines through in every track on this CD. It's a truly international collection, with songs in Dutch, French, Hawaiian and Hebrew, old traditional children's songs, Sara Hickman originals, reworkings of pop tunes, and more. Several guests appear on the CD, ranging from Tish Hinojosa to MC Overlord to lots of kids to Sara's husband Lance. The two "Storytime With Sara" tracks are cute at first, but don't stand up to repeated listenings, which is the only reason I gave "Toddler" four stars instead of five. But that's a minor quibble. There truly is something for everyone here. It is, by turns, funny, thought-provoking, fun and beautiful. Buy one for your own toddler, and you'll soon be buying more as gifts. You'll love it too, because Sara has one of the loveliest voices in popular music. Listen for yourself. You'll see!"
Happy kiddos!

"This is a terrific CD for kids and grown-ups alike. Unlike many children's CDs, this one is actually a pleasure to listen to. My two-year-old enjoys the songs and loves to listen with me. My older nephews DEMAND this music when they come to my house. The CD is a pleasure that I happily recommend."

"When I found out that Sara Hickman had put out a 'children's album' I had to buy it.
At the time, my daughter was just moving into the toddler stage. Music often fills our home (luckily with my wife's voice--not mine). However, with Sara's infectious songs and the simple sing-ability of this CD the house fills with my voice as well.
We have purchased this CD (along with "Newborn") for a family friend, and it has quickly become a favorite. Heck, even at our house 8 years later my daughter will pop out with the occasional song from this CD.
A very enjoyable family album."
Love this CD.

"This is a sweet and well balanced CD. My husband and I fell in love with it right away, and my daughter started to like it after it's played a few times. She can now sing a few songs from it. It's so funny to hear her sing the weenie man. :) Now it's one of our favorite CDs."
