What Parents Need to Know

About Taxi

Parents need to know that this CD is a compilation of favorite songs from the New York City-based music program, Music for Aardvarks and Other Mammals. Focused around urban topics such as taxi rides, street music, bagels, and park carousels, the album has a cult following (Jon Stewart is said to be a fan) and is filled with silly songs about things recognizable to those living in and outside urban areas.

Families Can Talk About

  • Families can talk about things that you find living in big cities: What's it like to ride in a taxi or live in an apartment? Families with older kids can also research the Big Apple to see what kinds of kid-friendly places exist there. Are there children's museums? What's a fun park to go to? Where can you buy yummy bagels? On a musical note, families can talk about the variety of styles, and figure out which ones are more inclined to get you dancing. Folk? Tango? Rap? Rock?

    I rate this title off for age 17 and give it 0.0

    I don't like it. I had a beautifal 3 year old girl, who listened to it, and now all she cares about are sex and drugs, and dildos.
