Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about the songs' various messages. "Sneakers," an ode to speedy and comfy footwear, starts out with a count-off in Japanese. How many languages can you count in? "Hide & Seek" is a silly ditty about the hazards of playing active games in princess clothes -- has that ever happened to you?

    Most Played Music By My Kids - Fast & Feisty

    My sons love this CD - it's the favorite. They love: holidays, we dress ourselves, hey claire and hot shot. Music is great and enjoyable by the adults in the room, I love the vocals and I think if you have a sense of humor, you will adore them. We just ordered the DVD, I'll post review after we watch it.

    We love it so much!

    My favorite song is Sneakers and me and my sister listen to the music in the car and we have another princess katie and racer steve cd that we listen to in the house. We know all of the words. I love it because it is fun to dance to and the parts where they talk and make jokes is really funny (skits). They are my favorite music to listen to.

    Best Rock for kids!

    My five year old son is crazy about this album. We play it everywhere we go. He sings and dances to all the songs, specially Sneakers and Go GO GO!I even know all the lyrics. Great way to teach children about issues that are hard to explain to five year olds.
