Editorial Review:
First things first: to appreciate The Backyardigans soundtrack, it is absolutely crucial that you have a 2-, 3-, or 4-year-old within footsie-playing distance. Like the soundtracks to virtually every other show on Nick Jr.'s much-adored lineup, this is a disc formulated with scant regard for grown-up sensibilities. But rightly so. After all, preschoolers can't be blamed for having a predilection for the preschoolerish, and who wants to hear fussy, good-for-the-whole-family songs--the musical equivalent of peanut butter and jelly on whole wheat, crusts attached--when Pablo the penguin, Tyrone the moose, and Tasha the hippo are on hand? To its credit, cartoony voices aside, this animated crew kicks out the jams: Uniqua and the gang get down on the disco-fueled "Shake Your Body" and then go gently hip-hopping through the grass to their own "Rad Moves," and minute-long forays into pop, rock, folk, big band, celtic, calypso, klezmer, and even dixieland follow. You may not place as much value on being a princess as the Pepto Bismol-colored Uniqua (see "I Love Being a Princess"), but count on any TV-watching, tiara-wielding kid in your household to know exactly where she's coming from. Here's a disc solid enough to keep on spinning until gigantic singing playthings somehow lose their appeal. --Tammy La Gorce

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Fun and cute songs
Kids love this in the car and parents don't get sick of it... too much :)
Rating: - Super Rad
My daughter and I love song #4, Super Rad. All of the songs are very catchy with clever lyrics and a fun beat. Always puts us in a happy mood. We love the Backyardigans!
Rating: - Backyardigans CD
We LOVE this CD. Our kids love the Backyardigans, but we actually listened to the previous CD's before we ever watched the program. What's nice about this is that the music isn't dumbed down, it's all sorts of international music produced very professionally with fun and funny lyrics. My husband and I enjoy it as much as our kids do and if you've ever spent a long car ride listening to children's music...you know that is saying A LOT!
Rating: - I caught myself singing along....
We initially checked out this cd from our local library. I questioned the title of some of the songs, didn't think they would be a good influence. After I realized I knew the lyrics to at least 3 of the songs and my girls behaviors were not negatively impacted - I bought the cd and we continue to love it. The CD has catchy lyrics and melodies, a little bit like showtunes I think.
Rating: - Great CD for kids of all ages
A must have for any Backyardigans fan. We listen to this CD everyday in the car. We won't let our son listen to the radio so we have to have a bunch of children friendly CDs loaded in the car at all times. My son absolutely loves this CD. It's probably one of the few children CDs I can listen to without losing my mind.
