What Parents Need to Know

About Ladybug One

Parents need to know that this album is a nearly-perfect example of tasteful, adult standards of excellence applied to music meant for kids. Lyrics are clever and address kid-friendly themes like the alphabet and counting, along with several songs that celebrate the richness and abundance of nature. "Mere Bacche Ke Liye Lori (Lullaby for My Child)" is performed in Hindi and "La Luna (the Moon)" in Spanish.
