My kids love this show, too. To combat the short excerpts of music they play on the show, I found a website that lists each episode, and the songs played, then downloaded them from itunes. They happily listen to the CD, I don’t mind because they are the real versions, and it has helped on our long car rides to Grandma and Grandpa’s! My older son recognizes the songs from the episodes, so even he enjoys it!

@gidge: if 6/8 time is hurting your arms, you’re not using your elbows enough. in fact, if you do it right, you should throw out your *neck*.

I like this show too but I catch myself singing the songs over and over. UGH.

So are you frightened that your kids will be smarter than you? They are already smarter than me. 10 years of music lessons on 3 instruments, and I still have to look up circle of 5ths to remind myself! Now that I have I’m feeling very ashamed…lol

It’s funny that I saw this post today. Today, sitting on the couch with Alex, my little girl, watching *another* episode of Dora the Explorer, I thought to myself “Her first sentence is going to be in Spanish with the amount of this she watches”.

I’m waiting for the Little Einsteins to start teaching them Trig. That would make my life so much easier.

Little Einsteins Rule!

Now if only the “Einsteins” could just teach my child that all orchestral instruments do not necessarily sound like bad synthesizer versions of themselves and magically turn into fish.
