Twinkle Twinkle Jazzy Star CD

My toddler usually can't sit still, but the jazz versions of these classic songs actually got her bouncing along and asking for "more music." The arrangements are so fresh that I don't mind hearing "Twinkle Twinkle" on repeat for the tenth time this week.

We’ve been playing this in the car every morning and the jazz takes on nursery rhymes are surprisingly soothing instead of grating. The trumpet and piano arrangements give classics like "Twinkle" a fresh swing that even my husband hums along to. It’s quickly become our go-to for tantrum-free rides.

My toddler usually only wants the same five nursery rhymes on repeat, but the jazzy arrangements here finally got her bouncing to something different. Thomas Moore’s interpretations give each classic tune a fresh, swinging feel that even I don’t mind hearing for the twentieth time.
