This whimsical CD has the same gentle, folksy vibe that's made Mitchell a fave of both kids and parents for over a decade. It evokes those precious moments of pure familial bliss ... you know, those moments right before all heck breaks loose. As fleeting as they may be, this album is a nice reminder that such moments do indeed exist.

Rudnick's jazzy jams qualify more as "family" music than "kids'" music since grown-ups enjoy the tunes as much as kids do. The songs are filled with fierce guitar riffs and fun, silly stories. There are also some great renditions of classics like "Three Little Fishes", "Erie Canal" and a rockin' version of "Greensleeves."

Dano, a Parents' Picks Awards winner in 2009 and 2010 for Best Party Entertainer, is like the Bob Dylan of kids' music. His cool, earthy voice resonates over bluesy folk-pop that's so good you won't object when your kid yells "Again!" after each song. In fact, don't be shocked if it's YOU that presses repeat over and over.

This kickin' old-school hip-hop-soul-afro-pop CD is unlike any kids' music out there. The funky music will make you—and your kids—wanna get down. The rap "Books!" has a hook that's as catchy as any Swizz Beatz beat. And the reggae-inspired "It's Your Birthday" is a welcome relief to the tired old traditional b'day song.

Berkner, the darling diva of kids' music and WINNER for Best Kids' CD in our 2010 Parents' Picks Awards, will make her fans very happy with this fab compilation. It has all her biggest, best hits together on one album. So next time your kid is shouting out requests from the back of the car, you won't have to go fishing around to pop in a new CD.

Justin Roberts' music just makes people happy. With clever lyrics and kickin' music, Roberts brings to life the essence of childhood. He explores classic kid themes we can all relate to, like sleepovers, broken bones, trick-or-treating and fire drills. Don't be surprised if you like it so much you find yourself listening to it when you're alone!

Not only does Frances England have a mind of her own, she's got a sound all her own, too. Her amazing voice would fit right in at any Lilith Fair concert. And her quirky and uplifting lyrics and music will rock little mamas as much as big ones.

If no one told you that this was a "kids" album, you'd never suspect it. The solid reggae tunes will rock your world whether you're 4 or 64. It features an awesome take on Simon Says (called "Ziggy Says"!) that your kids will be sure to love. And you'll love that the music doesn't make you want to poke your eyes out!

Kindie music star Joanie Leeds' CD has something for everyone—jazz, hip-hop, pop, classic rock ... you name it. Yet, even with all those styles, it flows seamlessly, taking you on a fun journey through Kidville. The song "More Cowbell" will get you grooving and the '50s rock-style "Popcorn" will be an insta-hit with the whole fam.

This CD has a cool mix of pop-rock songs with beautiful harmonies and fun old-school hip-hop beats. And best of all, mommies get props on the song "Crawl to Your Mother." "We all come from one, she made you a someone ... crawl to your mother, and tell her you love her." Hooray for acknowledgement!

This upbeat CD is filled with positive messages and fab music featuring piano, trombones, violins and trumpets. There's a great tune called "Peter the Pinhead" about the singer's picky-eating days. It'll make your kid laugh, and who knows? Maybe it'll inspire him to eat his broccoli.
