"I created this CD because of my passion for Armenian music and language, my burning desire to give our children high quality musical and learning experiences.
This collection includes a special welcoming song to greet each child, songs that will encourage children to start singing along, songs in major and minor tonalities, lullabies and songs that encourage children to rock, songs just made for listening, songs with a wide range of metric and rhythmic patterns, songs with simple words and repetitive tunes that will help children learn them quickly, songs that will help with vocabulary development, finger plays for fine motor skill development, action songs for large motor skills and stop-and-go activities to help develop overall bodily control."

This is by far my daughter's favorite CD. I love the fact that the songs blend beautiful Armenian melodies with modern music, making for one truly unique and fun experience. My 3 year old daughter has listened to the CD countless times, and will get up and dance to it every single time. I highly recommend this CD to all parents and caregivers who want to expose their children to Armenian music and dance.
Five stars is not enough for this CD, I listened to it many many hundreds of times with my kids and never tire of it. It's as fun for the kids as for the grown-ups.Very imaginative,inventive,excellent use of old somgs in a totally new way,and my kids especially love 2 songs that Noune wrote, the Train and the Bath song.When my kids don't feel like taking a bath I start singing this song and it works every time.Good job!
