 - Helping Children DevelopIn today's society it is so important to help children develop a positive self-image. This album does that in a very pleasing way. The assembled celebrities do an excellent job, through their songs, of making children feel as though they are worthy and important. I highly recommend this. It is a collection of songs that I used repeatedly, and often, when teaching as an entertaining way of getting the students to feel good about themselves. Highly recommend this DVD! Rating: - GREEN/BROWN EYESThere's a land that I see where the children are free And I say it ain't far to this land from where we are Take my hand,come with me,where the children are free Come with me,take my hand,and we'll live In a land where the river runs free In a land through the green country In a land to shining sea And you and me are free to be you and me I see a land bright and clear,and the time's comin' near When we'll live in this land,you and me,hand in hand Take my hand,come along,lend a voice to my song come along take my my hand sing this song For a land where the river runs free For a land in the green country For a land to a shining sea For a land where the horses run free And you and me are free to be you and me Every boy in this land grows to be his own man In this land every girl grows to be her own WOMAN! Come with me take my hand and we RUN! In a land to the shining sea In a land where it is always the 70's ... ... ... .. ... .... .. .. you and me Rating: - Free to be you and meI was very familiar with the title and was pleased with the condition of the product and the speed of the shipment. Rating:  - Sadly dated, get the CDI vaguely recall bits and pieces of video from my childhood, but it was still a bit of a shock when I got the DVD. The CD seems unfortunately timeless, but the DVD looks very very dated. Some of the animations (e.g. "Atalanta" and "William's Doll") aren't too bad, but the rest is too 70s. Get the CD instead, you'll be much happier. Rating: - Stands the test of timeKids loved this. Girls 7 (first grade) and 5 (pre k) and son 2 yrs. We moved from a very relaxed, well funded, full of arts school district to across the world, heavily congested, low funded little to standard art school district. Found the transition from fun sunny friends to competitive relatively unhappy community tough. This video really helped my 7 year old see her diversity in a soft and soothing way, believe it helped her move. Kids loved it for the entertainment value too. I swear I heard their brains blooming open with possibilities when they watched this. I loved the retro revisiting my childhood of it. It was a lot shorter than I remember it, which is handy for rewatching.
