Kidz STEM Songz

Kidz STEM Songz. Performed by Dan Crow and others. 2 CDs and 1 DVD. KidzMusic Records. 2018. $12.99 download only.

The first CD is Dan Crow’s Concoctions, which I reviewed 8/29/16. See my review in this blog for details.

The second CD (approximately 50 minutes) includes 16 original songs by a variety of well-known children’s music professionals, such as Grin Brigade, Katherine Dines, Lucky Diaz and the Family Jam Band, The Brian Waite Band, Marla Lewis, Hap Palmer, Roger Day, Eric Ode, Billy Harley, and several others. Children’s choruses join in on several of the songs. They perform in a variety of musical styles, including rock, pop, funk, Western, Latin, rap, Chinese folk, and chipmunk voices. The songs are “Weightless,” “It’s Amazing What You Can Do With Your Brain,” “Gato Astronauta,” “Five Cool Cats,” “Sedimentary Rock,” “E=mc²,” “The Abacus” (a story about a competition between an abacus and a calculator; the calculator was faster, but got the wrong answer), “Counting by Twos with the Odd Numbers,” “The Brain Train,” “When I Only Have a Minute” (which takes 1 minute, 3 seconds to sing), “I’m an Engineer” (train engineer, that is), “Poor Planet Pluto,” “Milky Way,” “Thank a Plant” (should be thanking God for creating plants for us instead), “Jump,” and “Botany.” 

Included in the set is a DVD, which has computer animation accompanying “Science, Science, Science,” “Technology,” “You’re an Engineer,” “Seven,” and a bonus track: “Tooth Fairy Take Me Home.”

This is a good, professional album that encourages children to pursue math and the sciences.
