What Parents Need to Know

About Celtic Dreamland

Parents need to know that the folks at Putumayo bring their usual cross-cultural integrity to this lovely CD, which features some of the best contemporary Celtic musicians around. Take the "Dreamland" label seriously -- this is some excellent, but very sleepy material: Don't play while driving.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about what musical instruments make a song sound Celtic. Why don't you think you hear a lot of harp solos, for example, in pop music? Try putting this CD on at bedtime, then draw some pictures of your dreams when you wake up the next morning. Do you think the music had any influence on your dreams?
