Parents need to know that Maria is a strong example of a brave young woman in search of her destiny. "I Have Confidence" offers a great lesson in examining---and confronting--your fears. Ask kids how the song's changing music reflects this development.
'The Sound of Music' is a delightful compilation of the Rogers & Hammerstein songs found in the musical. Educational, as it features the song "Do Re Mi" which teaches the Von Trapp children the musical scale, and fun, these songs are appropriate for any age, and are uplifting and enjoyable for years.
This is a wonderful, fabulous soundtrack for kids of all ages. It teaches the musical scale while kids can have fun with it. I am 13, and this is my absolute FAVORITE CD EVER!!!!! It's especially fun when you can change characters and change your voice with it. All around wonderful good clean music, which is so hard to find in a world of noise pollution, such as rap.
