What listeners have to say:

Its delightful for my children (age 4 and 9) and my husband and me. We like hearing about not only fun, silly songs but ones with messages of tolerance and treating the earth respectfully. Thanks for making this recording.
Barbara Murray - Mother

It has become a staple at dinner time. Logan wants to hear “Top Song” and “Pizza song” over and over and over again. It makes for an entertaining meal and even after. Darby laughs up a storm at Logan dancing around!

I can't tell you how much I am enjoying this CD!  Boy if I was in the classroom I would be using it everyday.  "Some Houses" would be right on the mark for unit on families and homes.  "Little Blue Top" for stewardship of earth. "Open a Book" would be a great way to cue kids to come to the rug to listen to a story.  "The Color Song" for teaching tolerance.  and so much more just for FUN. How did you ever learn to speak so fast?  "The Snowman Song" is unbelievable! I love "I Can't Find My Invisibility Cloak". My daughter and I (she works with little ones at daycare) howled when we heard
"I Love Daddy"  it was comical and so sweet!  Thanks for the fun!

We got Ken's CD "Fishin with Ish" when we heard him do a storytelling talk for our mom's group. My 4 yr old immediately wanted to listen to it, and hasn't asked for anything else since! We listen to it every time we are in the car, and it makes the trip FUN!!! We all (including my 2 yr old) sing along and at any given time during the day, my kids break into song. Thanks Ken for such friendly, warm entertaining music! It is a really great CD!

I LOVE your CD, but especially the way you arranged "The Color Song"! I'm always interested to hear other people's versions of my songs.   You gave it a really cool beat and tweaked the message to make it your own. And I loved your choice of material and your own songs.  You have a wonderful, funny, loving approach to children's music.  Congratulations on a first-class album!!!!  I'm a big fan!

Robby has requested that I put on the song Fishin' with Ish in an infinite loop in the player, and is at this moment doing a nice solo interpretive dance. Last week his preferred song was Jump by Van Halen, so this is a BIG step up.
