In the past there have been some pretty good Happy Mouse Recordings thanks to a conscientious decision to use real instruments and limit the saccharine kiddie vocals. This collection of songs is aimed at children from birth to age five and maintains this high standard. In fact, there are some genuinely good vocal performances courtesy of adult singer Ingrid DuMosch and tracks like the traditional "All The Pretty Little Horses" would not sound out of place on an adult folk album. With the prime purpose of lulling your little ones off to sleep, the compilers have understandably included versions of familiar numbers like "Brahms Lullaby" and "Hush A Bye Baby" but the inclusion of less predictable songs ("Polish Rocking Song" for example) shows that a lot of love and thought has gone into this release. Gentle references to faith are featured throughout with the aim of leaving "little ones feeling safe and secure in the knowledge of God's love and care" and prayers such as the title track and "A Candlelight Window" - not to mention the rest of this quality collection - do the trick nicely.
