Not strictly a children's album this is designed for a family setting with warm songs that minister both to parents and children. Chip bridges that gap by taking in songs that cover the joy of prayer ("Sweet Time") the love of God ("It's Your Love"), family relationships ("Come On Home", "Father's Son") and there are also more basharound songs that kids will love to sing ("1234", "Ice Cream") and some things that are just simply fun ("Branching Out"). Taking a folky style, these are songs that I can imagine being sung on long car journeys with the whole family joining in. So, occasionally he does wander into Playschool territory with the title song and this couldn't be described as contemporary pop music but we can forgive him for that! It's a million miles better that some of the cheesy pap that masquerades as kids' music!
