Evokids - English Songs, Sing And Learn is a CD that will delight young children and parents alike. It features interactive songs and music in a variety of accessible, child-friendly styles: blending specially-written original English language songs with traditional nursery rhymes, bedtime lullabies, and - in an innovative development - well-known classical music melodies accompanied by new lyrics. This makes Evokids - English Songs, Sing And Learn a unique learning aid for toddlers and preschoolers, aged between 3-5 years old.

The CD includes 35 different songs in six separate categories: 'Movement,' 'Activities,' 'Learning (Alphabet/Counting),' 'Animals,' 'Tales,' and Lullabies.' They all combine fun and entertainment with education; encouraging participation and helping young children to speak, count, read, write and improve their communication skills.

The four songs in the 'Movement' category are focused on dancing, body co-ordination, exercise, mimicry, and physical self-expression via four action songs: 'Shimmy Shimmy Shake,' 'Are You Ready? Dance With Me,' 'Silly Silly Dance,' and 'Point To Your Body.'

There are eight songs in the 'Activities' category, which cover meal times ('Time To Eat'), morning routines ('In The Morning When I Wake Up'), dental hygiene (a jazz-influenced song called 'Brush Your Teeth') and bath time (the sing-along 'Bubbles Everywhere').

'Learning (Alphabet/Counting)' has seven songs that focus on literacy and numeracy. They range from traditional counting songs ('Ten In The Bed' and 'One, Two, Buckle My Shoe') to a famous classical music piece adapted to encourage addition: 'Can Can You Count,' which repurposes French composer Offenbach's 'Galop Infernal' from his opera, Orpheus In The Underworld, which is associated with the can-can dance.

Apes ('Five Little Monkeys'), birds ('Six Little Ducks'), and insects ('Firefly') are referenced in the CD's 'Animals' category. 'What Do The Animals Say' is notable for being a new jazz-style song that encourages children to recognise different animals and make the noises associated with them while the song 'Firefly' was inspired by a J. S. Bach classical piece.

'Tales' highlights evocative storytelling songs; ranging from the traditional favourites 'Grand Old Duke Of York' and 'It's Raining, It's Pouring' to 'This Old Car,' a new song built on the foundation of an antique Mozart melody ('Andante In F Major').

The concluding category of Evokids - English Songs, Sing And Learn is 'Lullabies,' which features five sleepy-eyed bedtime songs to aid relaxation. 'Are You Sleeping' was inspired by the French nursery rhyme, 'Frère Jacques' (aka 'Brother John') while Erik Satie's 'Gymnopedie No. 1' is the basis for the dreamy lullaby 'The Moon Is Friend.'

Evokids - English Songs, Sing And Learn is a valuable resource for every parent with young children: its music aiding parental bonding as well as promoting child development, communication, and interaction.
