More importantly, though, they've put together a collection that ranges from uptempo to soulful, and is quite nice to listen to. In Latin Playground, Putumayo attempts to give representative samples of that range, and succeeds fairly well. Ranging from the simple Brazilian bossa novas to the complex cumbia beats that speak of indiginous peoples, the blending of customs, religion and cultures that makes up the vast heading of 'Latino music' is rich and full. The diversity of Latin American cultural music is staggering. While it is designed for children, it will provide pleasure for people of all ages. Latin Playground is a delightful sample of Latin American music by Putumayo. The CD closes off with a celebration of music with Rudy Regalado & Chevere's 'America Baila.' The next song is a change from the rest, 'Yo Quiero' by Ruben Rada touches on some of the things children need.

Flaco Jimenez's 'De Bolon Pin Pon' starts off full of energy and then fluxes, slowing down for the verses and then building in the chorus and back to the high speeds for the instrumentals. The song starts slowly and then picks up as it progresses. 'Chocolate' (Carmen Gonzalez & Koral Y Esmeralda) is a simple song about making chocolate. This is contrasted by the flair of Jose Gonzalez y Banda Criolla's 'Bomba Le Le' as it welcomes you into the music. This is followed up by the intensity of 'Rodopiou,' a high-tempo song by Nazare Pereira that remains quiet. The violin adds to the light-hearted feel of 'Hanal Weech' by Lila Downs.

The tempo kicks right back up with Cubanismo's 'Mardi Gras Mambo,' which is also one of the few songs in English on the CD. 'Lluvia De Estrellas' is a quiet, passionate song by Terri Hendrix that leads you in a gentle dance. Los 50 de Joselito follows this up with 'La Arana Picua,' a fun song about a spider.

The CD starts off with 'Guantanamera' by Omara Portuondo, a strong and proud song that soars during the verses with children joining in on the chorus. The lyrics are also provided in English and Spanish, with most of the songs sung in Spanish. Putumayo Records has done an excellent job once again with Latin Playground, a compilation CD designed for children with fun songs and well written liner notes telling them a bit about the country the music comes from, the artist, the song and the style of music.
