Putumayo is my new favorite music for my daughter.  It is so pleasing to have on in the background and my daughter goes wild when it comes on.  We received “Picnic Playground” free to try out and we were so into it, I didn’t mind when it looped back around a couple times.  The songs are upbeat and fun, but most importantly they expose your child to other culture’s music.  The music comes from France, Cuba, Trinidad, Denmark, South Africa, Australia, Germany, and different regions of the US. To sample the music go here.

We also received the newest release, “European Playground” to enjoy and enjoy we did!!  The music is fantastic and comes from all over Europe: Finland/Sweden, Belgium, England, Denmark, Hungary, France, Greece, Portugal, Germany, Scotland, Netherlands, Spain, Switzerland, Italy, and Ireland.  Not only will your child love and benefit from the CD, you will as well.  Like Picnic Playground, I didn’t mind it at all broadcasted throughout my house.  Fun foreign lyrics and beats will encourage your child to dance and sing.  It also provokes a curiosity in other countries and their cultures.  My daughter loves certain songs and shouts their countries along with the songs… and she’s not 3 yet!  The inner booklet also teaches interesting facts about the countries. To sample this cd go here.

Keeping with the same theme, try out others such as: New Orleans, Hawaiian, Celtic, Reggae, Brazilian, African, and Asian playground… there’s even more!
