Album Notes

Songs For Parents and kids too! marks a departure from the traditional genres of children's and family music by aiming at parents. These upbeat songs vividly paint the experiences of parenthood, from pregnancy through the toddler years, with a bright palette of melodic textures and lyrics that parents can intimately relate to. With the help of several talented Seattle musicians, including Kelly's singer-song writing sister Melanie, and Kelly's friend Charlie Hiestand producing and playing, the music covers an impressive range of styles, including rock, reggae, folk, 40's jazz, a cappella, pop, new age, spy and blues. And while the versatile vocals, artful song writing and quality musicianship can satisfy the most sophisticated adult tastes, kids simply love the songs too.
Furthermore, this CD introduces a feature that has never been seen in the music industry. A series of interactive games has been built into the CD case itself. Located in the space along the left side of the clear jewel case, you will discover a game, complete with rules, an objective, and a distinct themed challenge. All in all, there are 12 versions available, each presenting a unique challenge, and each themed to a different aspect of parenthood, nursery rhymes or songs from the CD.
Songs For Parents and kids too! by Kelly Fernandi engages listeners in a wondrous experience of high-energy songs that are as infectious for the kids as they are meaningful for the parents - all in a challenging and fun interactive package.
