Take It Outside by The Okee Dokee Brothers Review and Giveaway

I love music for kids! The new CD from The Okee Dokee Brothers called Take It Outside is wonderful! I received a free copy to review and I just love their down-to-earth, down home style. They have a bluegrass feel with a mix of country and folk. I love how they use wordplay in their songs and make them so fun and sometimes very goofy :)

The Songs include:
1. Bluegrass For Breakfast: This is a great song to get breakfast on in the morning with.
2. Neighbors: Such a super silly song! I don't know a weirder set of neighbors than these that are portrayed in this song, LOL!
3. Tippy Toes: A great song about the digits of your feet. I love the reference to going barefoot in this song as I sometimes love to go barefoot to reconnect with the Earth.
4. Hero: Has a lot of references to well known hero characters that your kids are sure to recognize. From Luke Skywalker to Captain Jack Sparrow to Indiana Jones, etc. this song is great and it makes one realize that we can be heroes too just by what we do and say.
5. Wash Your Face: A great song for any parent who has trouble getting their kid(s) to wash themselves after becoming unrecognizably dirty.
6. Lucy and Tighty: A great play on word song which introduces children to some big words in our vocabulary.
7. Water Balloon: This very repetitious song has one longing to get wet on a hot day :)
8. Antidisestablishmentarianism: Another song that will introduce your child to a very long word from our vocabulary...actually, the longest word!
9. Auctioneer: A great fast talkin' song that will get you wanting to bid on something :)
10. What We Got: This song is about the little things that we should be thankful for and that we should take care of it or it might not be here someday.
11. The Naked Truth: If your child listens to the lyrics of this song I am sure he/she will be in a giggle fit by the time it is over. You can listen to and download this one free HERE!
12. The Extraterrestrials: The imagination runs wild in this fun song about aliens...you know little green men?
13. Sweet Dreams: This CD winds down and ends with this sweet song about dreams. It is a great way to end this CD.

The Okee Dokee Brothers are fun to watch perform as well! With their beards, flannel shirts, overalls and instruments they're sure to be fun listening to around a campfire!
