Lullaby Favorites: Music for Little People

I have been listening to the lullaby CD with my 8 month old baby for several month now. The songs are very relaxing and I don't mind when I end up singing them in my head when I am at work.

I purchased this CD in 2003 right before my daughter was born. I also purchased "Golden Slumbers: A fathers lullaby" which I also highly recommend. I was pregnant and the CD wasn't my favorite at first--largely because of Tina's voice. I would describe it as "sweet" and pretty, but perhaps plain. Like many others after my daughter was born and over the next couple of years it became her very favorite. Maybe it was the songs, (her favorite, "Dark Brown is the River") maybe it was the simplicity of the songs, who knows. The last couple of years the CD has gone missing. The other night my now 5-year old asked me to sing her lullabies and I started with some from this CD. I was so happy to see it still available and have reordered it. $6.25?! Wow. Cheap. I would now describe Tina's voice as pure and simple. We like it.

When I was pregnant I purchased several lullaby CD's not knowing what my daughter would like. This is the one she LOVES! We keep it in the car and listen to it atleast once a day. It did take a few times for her to grow to love it, but now everytime it comes on she immediately calms down and often falls to sleep. If the CD ends, she fusses and I start it over again =)
The girl singing has a beautiful voice that's so easy to listen to. I often find myself singing along with her.

I bought this lullaby collection based on the recommendations of other reviewers. I am not a fan of the singer's voice. It is way too high for my taste. My son doesn't seem to like it, either, and will not fall asleep to this CD. He prefers the Disney Lullaby Collection instead.

Although many children may like this CD, I think the title may be slightly misleading. I think adults may appreciate the traditional choices like "All through the Night" and "Summertime" more. Tina Malia's voice is awesome!
