    We heard one of the songs at local library story hour and kids ask for it every time - Wiggy Wiggles. So we purchased the cd and find it great. Our 2 year old loves to dance and it's perfect. We will order more from this website and this artist.

  • Great CD for literacy camp kids!
    author: April Benoit

    I used this CD as a graduate student working with children at a literacy camp. The rhyming is a good way to introduce young children to listen to the sounds of words. The children love dancing to the songs and hardly know that they are learning!
