Hey, look at that, Many Hands is number one!  And fully half of the top ten comes from artists on the CD.  Congratulations to everyone on the list, and remember: it’s a fantastic gift.  Locals can get it at Turn It Up!, Toy Box, Cup & Top, A2Z, and presumably some other places; everyone else, ask at your local retailer or order from Amazon or iTunes or whatever.

My full column about our ballot for the Fids & Kamily Awards is over at Valley Kids (page 26).  But I thought I’d put the list here too.  It tracks the eligibility dates for Fids & Kamily, so, for example, Frances England’s Mind of My Own will be eligible next year.

1 (tie). Elizabeth Mitchell – Sunny Day

1 (tie).  Justin Roberts – Jungle Gym

1 (tie).  Various Artists – Many Hands: Family Music for Haiti (note: I have made back what I put into this record, so the F&K organizers all agreed that it was okay for me to vote for it)

4.  Rani Arbo & daisy mayhem – Ranky Tanky

5.  Dean Jones (with the Felice Bros.) – Rock Paper Scissors

6-10 (all tied for 6th):

Deedle Deedle Dees – American History + Rock ‘n’ Roll = Deedle Deedle Dees
