Ten years ago I was introduced to the fun tunes of Barenaked Ladies. With all the melodramatic tunes of the 1990’s Barenaked Ladies was a welcome change. Upbeat rhythms and lyrics and their trademark humor can make anyone happy. I like to think in a way the Barenaked Ladies’ music was the soundtrack of my courtship with my husband. So imagine my surprise when I found out they released a kids album! I ran out and bought the CD the day it came out, which I never do nowadays. Instantly the kids were dancing and singing along to the great beats I have loved for ten years.
Snacktime is a fun upbeat album that you and your kids will both love. Snacktime is is constant rotation in the car, and my children have their favorites, as do I. Nolan, four years old, loves The Ninjas, a funny tune about ninjas who like to vacation in Ireland. Megan, one, can sing along to Popcorn, and I often hear her sing “pop pop pop” even when we are not in the car. Me you ask, I love the song Raisins, and Allergies. Who else can make a Peanut allergies cooler then Barenaked Ladies come on.
The music runs the gambit of rock, bluegrass, pop and some 80’s tech. A little something for everyone, and mommy and daddy too.
So on to the fun, courtesy of bnlmusic.com I am giving away the Snacktime CD and the Snacktime book to five lucky readers!
