The songs themselves are very nice, except for a few exceptions. They are, however, in my opinion, as already mentioned above totally numb and much sung too fast! Unfortunately, so did not notice pre-listening, until we have all listened to the whole. Really soothing the CD does not even affects me. And my child (2 years) (to the extent that may be called at that age already so) is likely to sing along and dance animated, in bed mind you! So not at all suitable to sleep, unfortunately ... Then really what is right rather slow, with no text and maybe even from the classical department ... Then it fulfills its purpose eventually.
