Inside Out A Capella - Review and Give-away

Last fall, Neal and Utah Dad joined the other fifth grade boys from his school for a night at camp. When they returned they couldn't stop talking about the songs that they had heard on the bus. Before long, I too was listening to songs about snowmen and peanut butter and jelly. My children could barely contain their laughter as they listened to the fun songs.

The musical group that inspired such immediate child adoration:





Since then, we have acquired two of their CD collections: Primary Colors and Sharing Time. Insideout A Capella, is a group of six guys who combined their music talent to produce fun and fabulous music. While it might not be appropriate for Sunday morning, their arrangements of well known and beloved Primary songs are fun for the kids and the grown-ups every other day of the week. It's so nice to find music for kids that doesn't have the adults pulling out their hair within minutes.

Inspiration: Maybe if I played it while we were all in the car, my kids would sing along instead of hit each other. It's worth a try.

Insideout A Capella has generously provided
one copy of each of these musical collections
 to give away to
two of my lucky readers.

The rules for the give-away are so amazingly simple:

1. Just leave a comment on this post.
2. Leave another comment on this post for a second chance to win, if you post about this give-away on Facebook, Twitter, or your own blog.

The contest is open to comments until Thursday, February 10, 2011 at 11:59 pm MST. The winners will then be chosen randomly from the comments and will be announced on this blog on Friday, February 11, 2011.

Open to residents of the US only.

    I love these albums and Katie just made off with mine, so I'd really like to win. Both albums are timeless and expect to enjoy them for the rest of my life. Especially, Once There Was a Snowman.
