This new and improved music set contains songs for all kids ranging from infants to early elementary age. CDs: What is the focus of the music CDs in this set? Although both music CDs have the same basic objective of repetition practice, the style is quite different. "Imitation Station" primarily contains singing with music and rhyme, and "Vocalocomotion" contains speaking with music and rhythm. Some children find it easier to sing than to speak, and vice versa. Exposing children to both styles is key in achieving the maximum learning potential from the CDs.
