Songs to make your child a star

This will help get your child’s attention.

Personalized CDs from Smiley Music make your child the star by inserting his or her name into songs.

Geared toward preschoolers, your child will go nuts when he hears his named sung loud and clear from the likes of Barney the dinosaur, the Fantastic Four or Spider-man!

In addition to learning their ABCs or 123s, these CDs will also help build self-esteem and create name recognition, as his or her name is repeated throughout a song.
