House Party

We love it!

I don't know what we would do without this album!! It's so much fun-and not just for our 3 year old son. My husband and I love it too!! It's great family-friendly music that dares you not to get up and dance.

Wonderful songs! My son is 21 months old and LOVES Dan! He makes me put it on as soon as we get in the car and then dances in his car seat.

If you have young children, chances are you have already heard the songs House Party Time and Down in the Valley on Playhouse Disney. I don't think that those songs are representative of the entire album. If you like folk music you will definitely enjoy this CD. But, for someone like me who enjoys mostly hip-hop and some pop music, it may not be your cup of tea OR, like me, you may just need to give it some time. It took me quite a few listens, but now I enjoy listening to this CD as much as my two sons (ages two and four). Now we ALL sing along in the car. I'm especially fond of Queremos Bailar, Jamaica Farewell, and Tennessee Wig Walk. My boys love House Party Time, Down in the Valley, and Old Joe Clark.

We first saw Dan Zanes on Noggin, and from that point on, we were hooked! My daughter enjoys all these songs, but my husband and I enjoy them, too. We all sing in the car at the top of our lungs! Favorites include Sunny Old Sun, Waltzing Matilda, and Wabash Cannonball, but really, there's not a bad song on this album. This is more than just kid's music....it's music everyone can listen to and enjoy.

Thank you Dan Zanes and Laurie Berkner for making music we can all like! And thank you Noggin for playing them! We've been having a "house party" to Dan Zanes albums and dance party to Laurie's new DVD "We Are the Laurie Berkner Band." Fun for the whole family!
