Great GIft for Kid and Parent We love the pictures and the songs.
It includes a lot of songs my husband and I partially remember from our childhood. My daughter (3) enjoys having us share it with her.
The pictures do a good job of reflecting the song as well as exposing her to some beautiful artwork.
The music is simple enough that we can take it to the keyboard and play the tune.
