Let’s Dance CD Collection & Games Entertain Kids - Win A Set Here!

Let’s Dance CD Collection & Games Entertain KidsDora the Explorer will make just about any young child happy. When I was offered a new music collection from the “Vamos a Bailar! Let’s Dance” to review, my first thought revolved around my nieces (2 and 5 years old) visiting over spring break and keeping them entertained. We’re in the middle of packing a house to move and doing small projects, so keeping them occupied and not bored was important.

This collection is different from other children’s CD sets I’ve seen before. Aside from the 65 high-energy tunes that will keep kids dancing and moving, there are activities included within the boxed packaging. This was a huge surprise to me and the girls. There was a fold-out dance adventure board game and three other interactive games, including tic-tac-toe. All of the included activities fold nicely back into the square box it came packaged in, and is easy to store or travel with.

Despite all the options of games and dancing, my nieces enjoyed the reusable sticker sheets the most. We had Dora stickers all over the place! The set also included a Dora poster that they took home to hang on their wall. I let them take the entire collection home to continue listening to and playing with, because our son had no interest in Dora. They enjoyed it so much and were thrilled to keep it. From what I hear, they are still listening to the music daily and playing the games regularly.

Overall, I believe this is a great way to combine activities for children using a character they are interested in. There are so many options all within a 5 x 7 box. It would be great for road trips and keep little one’s busy while stimulating their minds with educational songs.

Let’s Dance CD Collection & Games Entertain KidsProps & Pans is giving one lucky reader a “Let’s Dance” collection set (including 3 music CD’s and the games mentioned above).

My daughter defiantly loves Boots the monkey. She’s only one but she can say his name and talks about it all day long! My son on the other hand loves Dora.
