Music
Since 1999, Putumayo Kids has been releasing music that teaches kids about getting along and getting their groove on, using songs and performers from around the world. Some parents — okay, I — even play the CDs after the kid has gone to sleep. Brazilian Playground, is freakin' fresco, baby.
To date, Putumayo Kids has released thirteen albums of global music, from African Playground to Asian Dreamland, which have sold millions of copies in over a hundred countries. Putumayo World Music, which releases both the children's albums and those targeted at grown-ups, also puts their money where their music is. They've donated $1.1 million to environmental, social, arts and children's groups.
