The whimsical songs on the new CD Javier's Jelly and Jam Session capture the imagination of young children. Javier Arau, a music teacher, just released this album, which tries to keep kids learning while having fun at the same time. His voice sounds like "Bear in the Big Blue House" to me - this probably will encourage younger kids to like his music. All the diverse songs that combine styles from jazz, blues, folk, R&B, island and classical were written and sung by Javier, with help from a few 6-year-olds. The silly songs are about concepts like onomatopoeia, the backward alphabet, animals, instruments, notes and compound words. Javier says he gets his ideas from observing life around him. Javier hopes kids will be educated and inspired by his music. I would recommend this CD to kids ages 2 to 7. — Elanna White, KIDSDAY REPORTER, AGE 11, ASTORIA
