Canciones Infantiles

I'm often asked for recommendations of children's music cd's, but sometimes it's hard to find them available for purchase in the U.S., even online. Of those available, my personal favorite is aptly named Canciones Infantiles, and is available at IslaOnline.com. It has a lovely old-fashioned sound; although the cd doesn't say when it was initially recorded, it sounds like it's either from the '40's or '50's. Unfortunately the musicians aren't credited either, so I don't know how to thank them for bringing their sweet sounds to children's ears! Isla is an online store with products from Puerto Rico, and also offers a selection of books for children and a few stuffed animals, including a coqui who makes the inimitable sound of the national symbol!
