childhood memory
my sisters and I listened to this lp constantly when we were kids--have most of the skits and songs memorized. It's such a kick to share it with my kids "music like it use to be," says my son.

My kids Love This!
Perfect for parents wary of the messages our kids are given through the popular music of today. My own kids are too old for nursary ryhmes & baby music, but I am not ready for all of the songs on the radio about girls trying to get boys attention. My 7 year old won't let me turn off the car until the 'Parents are people' song is over. Plus, I listened to this as a kid & I love it too. P.D.

Did they say that?
While this is a little outdated (I remember listening to it when I was young in the 70's--therefore it touches on some of the topics of equality--hence Free To Be You and Me), the tunes and stories are still very funny and very catchy. I have even listened to it without my daughter. However, when listening to it again for the first time I did have a "did they just say that?" moment. The that was, "you're a jerk."

Very Uplifting, Message Still Inspires Today
I remember this inspirational program when I was a teenager. Marlo Thomas should be credited with being the first to instill in young people that they are free to be whatever, and whomever, they'd like to be.

A Classic Kids' Album
Great songs and funny skits from TV and comedy stars like Mel Brooks. Teaches kids good, progressive values using catchy, folky tunes even adults can enjoy.
