Smart Start: Birth & Beyond

Starting babies and young tots off with playful songs and age-appropriate activities helps them move their limbs, get in tune with their senses, learn how their body works, and bond with a parent, sibling, or caregiver. Babies respond to a soothing voice, soft caresses, gentle rocking, a shaking rattle, tickling belly blows, soft claps, songs about their care, and simple adult-assisted activities. These songs soothe and reassure, awaken early humor, boost early language skills, encourage gentle care, and give young ones a smart start. When do we begin building the adult-infant connection?  We start NOW! 

Released May of 2008. The lyrics have not been uploaded yet, but the song list has. Please be patient for a little longer.
