    4 out of 5 stars Oh those Canadians!   May 18, 2008

    "Raisins come from grapes
    People come from apes
    I come from Canada"

    (lyrics from "Raisins")

    This Canadian alt-rock band scores big with my family with this album of 24 original and hilarious songs for kids. For a taste of the album make sure you watch the video on the Amazon product page for the first track "7,8,9", based on the old pun about a very hungry number seven.

    Whether they're singing about ninjas or pollywogs, allergies or the alphabet, BNL never fail to bring a smile to your face with the clever lyrics and catchy tunes.

    The ones we really like are "The Ninjas"; "Pollywog in a Bog"; "Raisins"; "The Canadian Snacktime Trilogy ii - Popcorn"; "Allergies"; and "I Don't Like". The one that made me smile is "Crazy ABC's", and I'll list a few letters so you can see why.

    A is for Aisle
    B is for Bdellium
    C is for Czar
    D is for Djinn

    And further down ....

    H is for Hour
    J is for Jalapeno
    M is for Mnemonic
    T is for Tsunami

    The one small problem is that there are a few too many slower tracks that are pretty good as folk ballads, but not so good at holding the attention of younger kids. Some of these are "Louis Loon", "The Canadian Snacktime Trilogy i - Snacktime"; "The Canadian Snacktime Trilogy iii - Vegetables"; "My Big Sister" and "Bad Day". The melodies are nice, but will be more to the liking of slightly older folk. (Think Gordon Lightfoot)

    One fun bit of trivia is that at the end of "The Canadian Snacktime Trilogy i - Snacktime" various people tell you their favorite snacks, and these people include Gordon Lightfoot, Geddy Lee, Lyle Lovett, Sarah MacLachlan, Jason Priestley, Janeane Garofalo and Weird Al Yankovic.

    Light-hearted, punny, clever and very, very entertaining - this is an album the whole family can enjoy and sing along to between giggles.

    5 out of 5 stars Super fun and silly.   May 6, 2008

    As you might know, for Barenaked Ladies, this is certainly a compliment. I am pleased as pie with this new kids record. I have been (not so) patiently waiting this release for over a year now. You won't be disappointed.

    I do wish it had a video companion, a la TMBG's ABC and 123s. But we can't win them all!



    5 out of 5 stars classic Barenaked Ladies but for kids   May 9, 2008

    Out of all the bands to date, the barenaked ladies are really the only one that could get away with doing a kids album. The good thing about this album its not just for kids, adult BNL fans will love this CD. This CD brings back the barenaked ladies of old with the million dollar, yoko one era were they could be funny but yet make good songs. This album is great from begining with 789 to the crazy abc's its all good. If you are a BNL with or without kids I urge you to buy this album. You will not regret it.

    This is the first time I've been inspired to write a review on Amazon. I get to listen to a lot of kids music with my 4 year old and this is by far my favorite. To my amazement its also hers (okay I know she'll change her mind in a few weeks). No offense to The Wiggles but if I hear Big Red Car again I'm going to lose it. I can't imagine ever saying that about any of the songs on this album. Some of the slower ones aren't quite as fun but all the others more than make up for them. Also some of the slower ones are awesome. This album has allowed me to introduce my daughter to the rest of the BNL catalog and I'm hoping this will lead to other "adult" bands. All this fun music and I also finally get to find out the favorite snack of the lead singer of my other favorite Canadian band.

    Many good songs for my 4 yr. old & hopefully more as he grows. Catchy & spirited tunes.
