Editorial Review:
Product Description: This CD has beautiful, calming songs from around the world are perfect for bedtime, meditation, yoga and relaxation. Some of the songs included are A Lullabye, Arriba Del Cielo, and Cradle Spell of Dunvegan.
Amazon.com: If these truly gorgeous lullabies and songs from all over the world don't soothe the savage beast within your child, nothing will. This hypnotic collection of soft and slow melodies--some ancient, some new--is perfect for lulling a child to sleep or for any evening when you want to escape into a warm bath with candles. Carlos Santana accompanies African singer Angelique Kidjo on the sweet opener, "Naima." Claudia Martinez sings "Arriba Del Cielo (Above the Sky)," a lilting traditional lullaby with roots in the Mexican state of Guerrero. The Letterstick Band, from the small An-Barra clan of Australian Aborigines, performs the moving "Yi-Rrana (Sunset)." One favorite is "Lá Vai Alguém (There Goes Someone)," a hot-summer-night-sounding lullaby sung in velvety tones by Virginia Rosa. Another lovely addition is Kanji Yano of the Sanshin Café Orchestra playing a generations-old lullaby on a traditional stringed instrument from Okinawa called the sanshin. The liner notes, written in English, Spanish, French, and Dutch, provide kid-friendly facts about the countries of origin. A portion of the proceeds are donated to the Putumayo Cross-Cultural Initiative, a non-profit organization that uses the power of world music and the arts to inspire children to connect with diverse cultures. Vive Dreamland! --Karin Snelson

This is a compilation of the most stunning lullabies I've ever heard. My daughter is 10 months old, and I can't believe that we just discovered this album now! The other lullaby CDs we own pale in comparison to this CD. I can't imagine anyone not loving the songs on this album as much as we do. But it... you won't regret it.

We love this CD!
My daughter goes to sleep to it every night, and we also play it during the day just for nice relaxing background music.
I love that it incorporates so many different types of music...african, brazilian, etc. It is a WONDERFUL CD that I would highly reccommend!

Wonderful, soothing, beautiful, diverse collection of lullabies from countries around the world. I put this in the CD player at naptime for my pre-K class and hit repeat play. I would suggest to anyone with children.

Bought this one a whim; first one I purchased in this series. I absolutely LOVE it. We instantly made it part of our bedtime ritual. I love every song! (which is highly unlike me; I average 3-5 songs a cd at best normally). I think it is also way better than the other dreamland's in the series. Actually, it really is my favorite Putumayo thus far!

We have worn through this CD and have bought a 2nd.
My boy has listened to this since he was a newborn and we never tire of the music; great choice.
Believe it or not the Martha Stewart Lullaby CD compilation is a good one.
And, you can never go wrong with Suzie Tallman.
