Baby's Best: Toddler Tunes collects 20 classic singalong songs for very young children, as performed by
the Countdown Kids. Thankfully, the children in the group sound like real kids instead of the overly mannered, cloying child singers found on many other children's albums. Their versions of songs like "Here We Go Looby-Loo," "Mary Had a Little Lamb," and "Pop Goes the Weasel" aren't note-perfect, but they're more fun, and possibly less intimidating, to sing along with than sugary-sweet versions of these songs would be. "London Bridge Is Falling Down," "Here We Go 'Round the Mulberry Bush," and "How Much Is That Doggy in the Window?" are some of the other favorites included on this collection, which fits the bill for families looking for a fun, uninhibited singalong time. ~ Heather Phares
