What Ethiopian music do you like? What about your kids?
Our awesome friend Pam (aka Auntie Pam) gave us this CD of 
Ethiopian children's songs waaaaay back when we first told her we were adopting. The kids listen to it NON STOP. Every day.
Today I went to recommend it to someone and found that it's no longer being made, or printed, or whatever it is they do with CDs. And would you believe that people are selling used copies on Amazon for $70????? That's just plain nuts!
So do you have any other kiddie CDs you like? What about regular grown-up music?
One of our favorites on YouTube is this Amharic version of Bob Marley's Three Little Birds. Marc will sometimes hook the laptop up to the TV and play music videos from YouTube. The kids love it and will sing and dance around the living room.

DANG! I saw that awhile back on ebay and thought I would wait....sorry I did now :( I just bought this from AbshiroKids:

You actually may want to check it out. They just came out with an animated learning DVD that is all in Amharic. They have a sample you can view online. I bet Macey and Felix would LOVE it!
Kellie, a couple of weeks ago I downloaded the Sorene album from Classicsonline.com for $10.00!!! So head on over there, download it and then copy it to a cd or just store it to your ipod or computer. I saw that it was $67 on ebay and wasn't about to pay that price!
I also ordered the kids' cd and dvd (it's a puppet t.v. show in Amharic) from the Abshiro kids website and my daughter (Betti) LOVES them both, along with the Sorene album....:) :) :)
