Like many people who went to college in the 90's, Elisa and I have known They Might Be Giants for a while. We were suprised and excited when, back in 2005, we discovered their video for kids entitled Here Come The ABCs. It's educational, obviously, but the bonus is that the music is good, and the lyrics are witty. It's hard to find music for kids that won't make parents want to gouge their eyes out.
Well, TMBG has a new CD/DVD entitled Here Come the 123's. For our family, the music ranks up there with BNL's Snacktime, but the greatest thing in my mind is the DVD. Like the ABC's, the DVD is filled with unique, creative animated shorts with a lot of character.
Don't forget TMBG No!

No! and Snacktime are my favorite kids CD's besides The Little Gym music.

Thanks, Tom! I hadn't listened to this one, but it's great! Maybe this will show up at Christmas.
