What a wonderful collection of songs for children! Is it any wonder that the chldren love them so much, since Kenny Loggins had the benefit of trying them out on his 5 children first? I have enjoyed it and decided to give it to my neighbor as a gift for her little newborn.
I do believe this is some of Kenny Loggins best music. I am buying this CD because someone stole my mine. If you have heard the song rainbow connection and liked it but have not heard the rest of the CD you really should listen to the whole thing.
This CD is one of the best I've ever heard....my grandchildren have all listened to it and love it, and parents/grandparents enjoy it, too! Beautiful songs, Kenny Loggins is at his best! Try it....you'll LOVE it!
When I first heard this cd I was a teacher for early childhood children. It was a cd we used to help relax the child during naptime. I thought it was wonderful and I love each and every song on this cd. Delivery by seller was great and it was exactly as described.
I've been looking for the "Winnie the Pooh" song for a long time. Finally, I sat down and researched and was extremely pleased to find it on an album filled with like songs and music. This is a tune that runs through my head a lot and is very calming. I especially like to use the album as background music in my elementary reading classes. As Kenny intended for his children I am sure, it seems to calm the students and they stay more focused when calm! And to top it all off, Kenny Loggins is one of my favorite writers and performers from "my" generation! Thank you, Kenny!
I buy this CD for every expectant mom that I know. My daughters are 16 and it is still one of our favorite CDs to listen to. Every song is a melodic, soothing blend of amazing talent. I am unable to buy this CD at a regular music store any longer as it is no longer in production so I was very happy to find it on Ebay. This purchase went to a friend who waited patiently for me to produce this amazing lullaby CD that I raved about. She has it in her car and is the only CD in her car; she loves it, her husband loves it, her newborn son loves it. And her father loved it so much that he went online to purchase it for himself!
my wife heard this cd when she worked in a day care and fell in love with it. kenny loggins did an excellent tranformation from story to song. i'd recommend this cd to anyone who has small children. we bought it for our up and coming child but now we listen to it as a memorial of our baby. and it still brings a smile to our faces.
10 years ago, while working in a child care center, we used to play this CD at the infant/toddler/preschool nap time. I fell in love with it! When I was pregnant with my daughter in 2003, it was a must have! We found a copy of it online and played it when she was in our hospital room and at home! The songs lulled her to sleep every night for 2 1/2 years, before she found the CD player and lost her CD. We purchased a couple since then as replacements and for other baby rooms.
The songs on here, some old and classic, some newer and compiled of other songs, are catchy for children, while staying soft and wonderful for sleepy heads.
This is simply a must have item for any home with a child in it. My daughter is almost 4, son is 21 months, and we have another on the way. This is our favorite for nap and bedtime!
I bought this CD because I have always loved Kenny Loggins and the song "Pooh Corner". I thought it would be great to introduce my daughter to his music and I am so glad I did! She and I both absolutely LOVE this cd. It is a favorite at naptime or bedtime, but the soothing music is very nice anytime of day to slow the pace of play. The classic song "All the Pretty Ponies" is now my daughter's favorite lullaby (she calls it her nitenite song). This cd would be a great addition to any child's music collection. It is imaginative and truely inspires a connection with the magical elements of childhood! As the song goes..."...come with me and you'll be, in a world of pure imagination..." This is Loggins at his very best!
I BOUGHT MY FIRST COPY YEARS AGO AND HAVE BOUGHT IT FOR MANY OF MY NIECES AND NEPHEWS. I WAS RECENTLY ABLE TO BUY ONE FOR MY DAUGHTER AND MY FIRST GRANDSON. SHE LOVES IT AND SAYS THEY PLAY IT ALL THE TIME.
This is one of Kenny's best. I am buying another one. I wore my cassette out so now I am upgrading to a CD. My kids are grown and I still love this music. You will too.
My kids love to listen to it in the car it is soothing and they love to hear about Pooh and Tigger as well as the rest of the songs. Would recommend to anyone with small children.
I would recommend this CD to every parent and grandparent on the planet. I have bought it for all of my grandchildren, and listened to it with them literally since the day they were each born. I also now listen to the CD when I am by myself, as it brings back wonderful, sweet memories of all of the times I have rocked them, sung them to sleep, and even the time I spent in a NICU with my sweet baby granddaughter who only spent 3 weeks with us here on earth, but listened to this CD with her grandma, just like her cousins did, and her new baby brother will when he arrives in a few weeks. I will value each song as a precious memory of times gone by. I would say that anyone else who buys it and uses it with their children/grandchildren will agree.
A favorite lullaby can be as comforting as a familiar blanket for a baby. Gentle music helps babies sleep at home, in the car, or anywhere. You'll want to find music that is pleasant for adults to listen to also -- especially since you may be hearing these songs over and over.
Kenny Loggins has a nice repertoire of songs; they are soothing and interesting. His voice is mellow...a nice change after a day of high-pitched giggles and squeals.

A Soothing Solution
Review created: 12/15/00
by: Mommy3S -- a member of Epinions
Pros: A great collection of lullaby classics.
Cons: none
Kenny Loggins combines his wonderful voice, tons of emotion and beautiful lyrics together to create this musical magic. According to the note Loggins wrote up for the cover of the CD, Return to Pooh Corner is a collection of his favorite children's songs. He stated that he loved cuddling with his children and singing these songs to them. I enjoy playing this CD in the evening to soothe my baby girl to sleep. I also play it to calm everyone down, for quiet time, after an excitement-packed morning. This is probably the sweetest music I have ever heard and I, myself, enjoy listening to Kenny...

The Perfect Baby Gift

Pros: soothing lullabies
Cons: none
Looking for a great baby shower gift? Kenny Loggins' Return to Pooh Corner is a great gender neutral selection. In fact Kenny Loggins created this album as a gift for one of his sons. Both children and adults will enjoy the relaxing lullabies. Kenny Loggins' soothing voice is perfectly suited for familiar lullabies such as "Rainbow Connection" (from the Muppet Movie), "Somewhere Out There" (From An American Tale), and Imagination (From Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory). Many of the songs from this album I remember from my childhood. The songs are arranged as a continuous stream of music..

The Absolute Best Lullaby CD
Review created: 05/09/00
by: jenninca -- a member of Epinions
Pros: Calming, imagination-inspiring songs that even adults will enjoy
Cons: It ends!
In the many day cares where I worked over a five year period, one thing that was present at each was rest time. Another thing that was present at most of them was Kenny Loggins' "Return to Pooh Corner" playing during rest time. And for those places that didn't have "Return to Pooh Corner," I brought my own copy. Why did so many centers swear by "Return to Pooh Corner?" Quite simply, because it is the best lullaby CD you will find, and one that adults can (and will) listen to again and again. I know what you're thinking--Mr. Footloose does lullabies? The answer is yes: he does lullabies better.

Relax and Remember . . .

Pros: Great lyrics and music, soothing for children and adults.
Cons: Most teenagers would not like this music.
Return to Pooh Corner is a collection of Kenny Loggins' children's favorite songs. There is a short letter on the inside of the CD explaining why Kenny put these songs on this album. The letter gives you insight to Kenny Loggins as a father, not as a singer. These songs are sang softly and slowly, which is very relaxing. The lyrics take you back to childhood when life was simple. This is a great collection of songs for the whole family. How I ended up with Kenny Loggins - Return to Pooh Corner My son and I received this CD as a gift from my father for Christmas. When he first handed me the...

Baby Valium

Pros: Soothing lullabies, beautiful music
Cons: None
With my first baby, I had a terribly hard time getting him to sleep every night. Several years later, some friends of ours told us about Kenny Loggins' Return to Pooh Corner. They claimed that it calmed their infant son down every time. When I got pregnant with my second child, I bought the cassette. I thought it was worth a try. I began using it when my second son was about a month old. Every night, while I was rocking him and nursing him, I put that tape on his tape player in his nursery. I swear, I wore that tape completely out. I had to buy the Cd so that I could make tapes of it whenever.
