What Parents Need to Know

About Dream Big!

Parents need to know that this CD will please both kid and adult ears with its agreeably funky beats and silly (and sometimes soulful) lyrics. The title song's simple admonition to "dream big" infuses the entire album. Each song is a celebration of imagination and childlike wonder, whether talking about elephants in Borneo or doodle bugs in the garden.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about the importance of dreams and goals. What are some of the fantasies you have? Flying to the moon? Curing cancer? Also, parents can use the message of the song "Turn off the TV!" to remind kids that there's a "three-dimensional world" out there to explore.
