Learning Basic Skills Through Music 1

I have the same one on an album! I got it over 50 years ago when our first child went to kindergarten. Now I can have the same music for our grandchildren on CD. I like to listen to it also! It’s very upbeat and teaches a lot!

Finding this product made my client very happy.

I started teaching in1972. There were no such things a CDs back then. This record was a 331/3 speed vinyl record. I used it with my second graders. They always looked forward to the activity songs during our morning break. It makes them think as we'll as move. It is an awesome learning tool for early learners.you do not need to be a teacher to use this album(CD) with little ones. Just learn the words and act out the rest. It teaches them to recognize colors and numbers. It is excellent. I am getting a copy after 39 years of teaching. I am using it with my grandchildren. Gold does not lose its value. This CD is wonderful. It keeps the first and second graders engaged. Buy it before it is taken out of production!!

As a preschool teacher for the last 25 years I have used this recording with many classes and for many years. I recently switched to a school that did not have a copy and borrowed a copy from the library during the school year last year. Decided I wanted my own copy because it just has so many songs that really are enjoyed by the children and do teach various basic skills with little prep from me. My favorite "Colors" and after the kids get the hang of it they love all the standing and sitting that is they must do during the song. Definitely reccommend this especially if you can only get one recording, this should be it.

Pleasantly surprised, when we turned on the music, and out came soothing, beautiful, simple music. Lovely in its calm approach, with deep yet gentle masculine voices. While this is music for our youngest, I can put the CD on at lunch time, and no one rolls his eye balls or complains, just because it's kiddie music. No insipid quasi-rock-inspired idiocy, leaving you cringing after ten minutes. The songs are old-fashioned (i.e. talking about girls dressing in skirts and dresses, boys in pants.) If you aren't big on reason / teleology, you will be offended by such blatant "genderism". (Not a word, but should be.) Great for ages nothin' through about five or six.

Basic but very fun for young children. I used this about 20 years ago..it is a classic..I am subbing now and keep it in myred sub bag...great filler and reinforces concepts. Glad it is still available. I used it this last Monday and Tuesday and kidsespecially like Colors and March Around the Alphabet. I like to use Elephant Walks for animal unit.

This CD does not work. I am a retired kindergarten teacher used it in the classroom on a record in 1970 . Wanted it to use with my grandson but I can’t get it to work. 😢

I really like Hap Palmer materials. I ordered the volume 1 CD and received the Volume 2 disc in the Volume 1 CD packaging! We still like using Hap Palmer stuff, but we were disappointed that we did not receive the Volume I thought I ordered.

Wonderful songs with catchy tunes which my special needs children love, Really great for all littlies and the learning aspect wonderful. Highly recommended.
