Recess Monkey's 'In Tents' Brings the Circus to You! Review & #Giveaway!
As you probably know by now we listen to a lot of kid's music. I like different music for different occasions. Well if the occasion is to have fun then Recess Monkey's In Tents CD is the perfect choice!! The CD brings the Circus life to you. The opening song (title track) is hands down my favorite it gets you up and ready to enjoy! I really loved that the whole album is themed. It just flows beautifully that way. I have to say some of this music reminds me of artist I grew up with but as if they've had kids like me! Very enjoyable all around.Additional Information:

My Thoughts:
We thoroughly enjoyed this album. The song lyrics are all catchy and mixed with the music will have you dancing along. Dancing Bear is a kid's rap and hysterical, you will find yourself singing along to that one! You can really tell that Recess Monkey enjoys real music and has found a way to incorporate that love into great children songs. They really know children as well because the songs are fun and will cause your little ones to giggle with glee!
In Tents is set to be released on June 19, 2012. It will be available at RecessMonkey.com as well at Itunes, Amazon.
WIN,WIN,WIN
