2008 PARENTS' CHOICE
AWARD WINNER!
"Don’t judge a CD by its title. Alphabet Rockers, a fresh collection of fun songs is not entirely alphabet-centric. Counting backwards form 10 to 1, the days of the week, shapes and the weather, are all here covering age appropriate topics with toe-tapping appeal..."
Parents' Choice Foundation: Parents' Choice Awards2008
www.parents-choice.org


2008 NAPPA Winner!
“Get on up with some funky tunes that will have you learning while you’re getting down with your own bad self. Name a danceable style of music and you’ll find it on this recording: R&B, hip hop, rap, funk, reggae and others. It’s so easy to forget that every catchy and clever song on this genre-hopping album introduces a preschool concept: colors, money, the days of the week, social skills and more. Teachers of young children will want to bring this one out for circle time, and parents will want to listen to it in the car … maybe even without the kids on board!”

"Alphabet Rockers is full of uptempo songs with lyrics that educate without preaching to kids." [The music is for parents who want to avoid] "the brutal assaults of the purple dinosaur and the Band That Must Not Be Named from Australia."
Boston Globe Feature, by Dennis Fisher

"Hip-hop is great and all, but you know what it could use a little more of? Educational appeal for the kids. That's the thinking behind Alphabet Rockers...a fun, educational performance for young kids."
Boston Globe Living/Arts "Best Bets"


"Rock out to kiddie hip hop. The Alphabet Rockers perform high-energy educational songs."
San Francisco Chronicle Mommy Files

My kindergartners and I love rocking out to Alphabet Rockers! Not only are the students dancing and having a great time, but they are learning as well! The songs are hip with interesting beats and the kids think the songs are "cool". We encourage everyone to check it out!
Joanne Chung, Founder Kinder Learning Garden

“The show was such a blast! My daughter memorized the CD and sings at the top of her lungs as we drive around town. She's incorporated it into her daily life - when we were reading Babar to her last night, and I read the line, "And thus it was that Babar became king" she said, "King, K-I-N-G, King" (just like the Spelling Bee Battle).”
