Hap Palmer Press and Music Reviews

Baby Songs Videos

by Scott Blakey 
Los Angeles Times Syndicate

     Hap Palmer is the California troubadour whose sweet pipes have made kids from toddler to teen swoon with joy.
     He is that rare artist who never exploits his core audience - in this case, children - with second-rate material. He's also a gentleman, a witty man and as kind as an old Airedale. His "Baby Songs" series won a host of awards and probably sold upward of 2 million copies.
     Palmer combines lyrics and music with appealing graphics, glimpses of real kids singing and dancing, and puppets performing essential functions. In the original "Baby Songs," some ditties celebrated triumph - "Today I Took My Diapers Off" - while others went right to the core of being little - "Please Don't Wash My Blanket Today."
     Palmer's newest release, "Baby Songs: Animals" mixes the usual and unbeatable combination of Palmer's music and a number of the creatures around us.
     You can check out other releases and get more information by keying into the web at www.babysongs.com.
     The bottom line here is that these are not videos that inspire couch potatoes to do their thing. These are teaching videos that make kids sing and dance about. Palmer knows his stuff.
     He also knows kids and has five of his own, ranging in age from 31 to 4, and a grand daughter who is 18 months.
