Cool Factor

With the target age for this CD set at 4-8, will the older kids rebel?

Aside from the lyrical sophistication of the songs, and a verse about Harry Potter, there is one very cool factor to this CD that will draw in older kids and adults as well: the Thrice Upon a Time Band.

There are no cookie-cutter stock arrangements here. This CD has its own distinctive alt rock feel, which arises from the mix of four talented musicians working creatively together.

 

Feed Your Brain

The songs on The Great Green Squishy Mean Concert CD were selected for their entertainment value, but there's plenty of substance here as well.

You and your kids will learn fascinating details about the life of a lizard known as the "Horny Toad." In "You're a Dinosaur," you'll groove to the latest scientific theories of dino behavior. You'll even get some great reading recommendations from "Hanging Out With Heroes at the Library."

All the songs are rich in creative language and vocabulary. There's enough smart stuff here to keep you and your kids laughing and learning for years to come.

Cool lyrics and sophisticated musical arrangements make The Great Green Squishy Mean Concert CD a perfect choice for the whole family."

"Not only is "Loose Tooth" hilarious, it is a study in songwriting craft. To wit, "I can't wait to surprise her when I tell my teacher I'm losing an incisor!" Vibrant images of a child's world are a hallmark of Mr. Harper's work, and his prolific playfulness delights the child in all of us."
- Dave Kinnoin

"We had a great time at the concert.  I have a home daycare and we brought all of the children up to the concert.  They range from ages 1-7.  They all loved it, even the youngest one was dancing around.  I would like to have an additional copy of The Great Green Squishy Mean Concert CD.  It would make a great gift for any child.  We can't begin to tell you how much we have enjoyed your music!"
