Congratulations to our winners: #3 – Kristie, #15 – Ann, #36 – Jessica, #44 – Donna and #39 – Renee
I’m so stoked about this post/giveaway. We got our hands on the brand new (to be released Tuesday, May 5th) Ziggy Marley album, “Family Time“.
I can’t stop listening to it. It’s definitely a “family” album that’s geared toward kids but if you can imagine, it’s totally enjoyable for adults too. Come on, it’s Ziggy Marley.
Ziggy Marley is bringing music to the LITTLE people! He is releasing his first children’s album and has invited some family and pretty cool friends to join him on it. Jack Johnson, Laurie Berkner, Elizabeth Mitchell and Jamie Lee Curtis are only a few of the artists featured on the CD Family Time, in stores May 5th. In addition to some well known classics like “This Train” and “Hold Him Joe” Ziggy has written many original songs on this release which are endearing tributes to his family with many sage words of wisdom for kids.
There are eleven music tracks on this album with guest appearances by none other than Jack Johnson, Elizabeth Mitchell, Willie Nelson, Paul Simon, etc. There are two story tracks on the album, narrated by Jamie Lee Curtis. It’s a perfect album for sunny Spring and Summer days. You’ll be bopping from the minute you listen. One of my favorite tracks on the album is “Wings Of An Eagle”. Elizabeth Mitchell does guest vocals on this song and Dan Littleton plays guitar. It’s amazing!
We’re giving away FIVE copies of Ziggy’s new album, Family Time! I’m so happy about this because I want everyone to hear and enjoy this album like we do.

My 2-year-old has been dictating the music lately, so we’ve been listening to Dennis Buck sing The Wheels on the Bus, Six Little Ducks, and If You’re Happy And You Know It. Also, we go to a library storytime where they have all the kids shake beanbags to a song called Bean Bag Rock so I managed to find that CD (by a group called Kimbo) so that we can play it at home too. I would love a little Ziggy Marley and I think she really would too! Thanks!
