Five Little Bunnies Read & Sing Along {Book Review & Giveaway}


   For over 23 years, Twin Sisters Productions has been dedicated to producing quality educational and inspirational music resources for children, families, and educators.  Founded by fraternal twins, Karen Mitzo Hilderbrand, and Kim Mitzo Thompson, they've continued to expand their product line to include CDs, read and sing-along books, floor puzzles and educational workbooks, all with the purpose of learning through music.

   These products have received over 160 awards for educational excellence and creativity as well as classroom and family fun.  These awards include nine RIAA (Record Industry Association of America) certified Gold albums and one Platinum album.  With thousands of songs that teach and over 26 million albums sold, Twin Sisters Productions positions itself as the leader in children’s educational music.

   If you have kids, you probably have a TON of books around your house.  And really, you can never have too many... kids are like little sponges and soak up every word.  The Five Little Bunnies Read & Sing Along board book with CD is a super cute addition to your little ones library.

Product Details:

·         The simple rhymes and delightful illustrations in this board book teach young children numbers 1 to 5. The Music CD includes the recorded story plus 19 new and classic children’s songs.  Ages 3+


·         CD Details:

o    Run Time 32:20
o    20 Songs (Five Little Bunnies Read Along + 19 Additional Songs)
o MSRP $9.99
My youngest two girls really enjoyed looking at the book together.  It's recommended for ages 3+ but I'd say children from 18 months up to about age 5 or 6 would be the ideal age.  The book has simple rhymes and minimal words on each page which is good for young kids with short attention spans.  The illustrations are cute and 'cuddly' (because it's pictures of bunnies, not because it's actually soft).  It's also a great way to introduce counting to your child.


Counting the bunnies- 1, 2...
The CD that comes with it is a nice compliment to the book.  It stores conveniently right in a pouch in the front of the book.  My girls liked dancing around to the music though the read-along seemed to have quite a long pause in between a couple of the pages.  The CD includes songs like 'If You're Happy and You Know It' and 'Head, Shoulders, Knees & Toes'... plus songs we had never heard of but that my girls enjoyed.  The CD would also be perfect to take along in the car for family trips to the store or the grandparent's... kid friendly tunes instead of what's played on the radio.

BUY IT:  You can purchase the Five Little Bunnies board book w/ CD online for 30% off (Only $6.99)... This would make an awesome Easter basket gift!

WIN IT: 1 lucky reader is going to win their own copy of Five Little Bunnies w/ CD

    I love how you show your girls in the pictures using the book.... they are so cute!

    If I were to pick another item, I would choose the CD of Mommy's Lullabies. Ava has a pull-string bunny that plays music, but it times out after only a couple of seconds... to have something that lasts longer would be nice.
