Sound like an exaggeration? It's not!
I dare say that the world is a much better place due to Raffi's creativity and obvious care he puts into his musical creations for kids and the messages he conveys with his music - some messages are simple, some more significant.
But - all of his messages have this in common: they come from the heart and they communicate to children quite well.
Here on this page are the top Raffi Music albums for kids with inexpensive (legal) MP3 Raffi Music downloads, as well as some great discounts on CD's and information on other fun activities.
Welcome! Have fun, stay a while...

Raffi Music - One Light One Sun
Raffi One Light One Sun is a very sweet album that puts some focus on the idea of the similarities of all the people in the world - instead of their differences. (A concept I consider is necessary to a peaceful world.)
There are other songs on the album that are silly and fun and will have the little ones singing and dancing in no time.
(This is personally my favorite of all the Raffi albums.)

About Raffi...
Raffi Cavoukian was born in Egypt, and was raised in British Columbia, Canada.While in high school, Raffi felt a love for American folk music, acquired a guitar and learned to play. After going to college for a couple of years he left to pursue a career in music. He was requested to create a set of songs just for children which he put onto tape - which started receiving quite a bit of popularity and requests for copies.
Raffi's first children's album was "Singable Songs for the Very Young" which he recorded from a basement studio. The album was picked up by A & M Records - at that point his popularity began to soar.
He focused mainly on children's music from the late 70's and through the 80's, and has now sold more than 8 million copies of his music. He's become known as "The Bruce Springsteen of the Younger Set". To this day Raffi's Music is some of the most sought-after by parents - and kids love him just as much as ever.
Raffi Cavoukian is not only a children's musical artist, he has created music along other genres and is an activist for the environment. His songs to children convey his love for all mankind and encourage a viewpoint of tolerance for all.
Think one man can't change the world? Think again! Raffi Cavoukian is a perfect example of how one caring man can really make a difference in millions of people's lives.
