Here at Baby Let's Shop we get asked to review a lot of children's music. In fact I turn a lot of it down. When it comes to children's music I cannot stand a lot of it. After 14 years of kids music droning through my house there is only so much I can tolerate. Let 's be honest, just because your kids like it doesn't mean you want to sit through hours and hours of the same mind numbing music. But Jeremy Plays Guitar is not your usual children's music. I actually came across the album Use Your Words online, after listening to a sample I was hooked. All day long I sang "House Rules". It really stuck with me, I drove my kids nuts because I only knew the first line but I sung it over and over all day long for weeks. House Rules, now this was really something I could get behind. I liked house rules, I wanted and needed house rules. And a catchy tune too?? Sign me up I was sold. I quickly made arrangements to get my hands on a copy and anxiously stalked the mailbox for it's arrival. Upon arrival I immediately uploaded it to my itunes so I could put it on my ipod for the car and popped the cd into our dvd player (where I play cds in the living room) so we could listen to it over and over. Jeremy Plays Guitar was a hit with everyone except for teen C but lets face it unless you are a character in a video game Teen C is not impressed by you at all. (That and teens are not really the target audience of this album haha) Toddler K has always loved music so he was an easy sell. Kindergardener L is the critic lately and he was sold! And now I have a partner to sing House Rules with and it's even better now that I know more than one line! Not only is the music catchy and enjoyable but all the songs really teach your child about house rules, it's ok to be wrong, taking turns, being different, using your words, dealing with our feelings, making mistakes, being silly, liking different things than others/allergies, meeting new friends, sensitivity to sounds etc, controlling your temper, emotions and more!! I can honestly say that I really enjoy each and every song on the album and could listen to them all again and again and we do!! You can check out the album here and have a listen for yourself. I'm sure you will love them just as much as us. I only hope we will be seeing a new album soon!
