Elsewhere you can read Lins Honeyman's review of the companion album to this selection, 'Split Track Hymns', and what's written there would pretty well go for this bumper set as well. It's another in a seemingly endless series of children's releases from the American Wonder Kids ministry and basically consists of some fairly basic backing with a choir of none too talented kids warbling along over the top. There's everything here from "Open The Eyes Of My Heart, Lord" to "The Lord Bless You And Keep You". Fortunately, through the magic of split-track recording technology, you can get rid of the kids' voices. Presumably that's to allow your own little darlings to sing along to the music, rather than to spare your own musical sensibilities. There's a great deal of worship material for children on the market, so it's not too difficult to find what you want elsewhere - which is what I'd recommend.
