What is Putumayo Kids?

Putumayo Kids is committed to introducing children to other cultures through fun, upbeat international music. We create products that entertain, educate and inspire cultural curiosity.

Putumayo Kids is the children’s and educational division of Putumayo World Music, an independent record label established in 1993. Since the release of the best-selling World Playground CD in 1999, Putumayo Kids has established itself as one of the leading children’s record labels in the world. With its growing collection of CDs, Putumayo Kids provides children with upbeat, melodic and culturally authentic music, enhanced by educational liner notes.

How Do I Know This Music is Good for Kids?

For each release, Putumayo Kids’ music experts choose songs with child-friendly lyrics and rhythms by both renowned and undiscovered international artists. Putumayo Kids tests songs in the field with real kids and parents. The international music selection contributes to the education of future global citizens while holding true to Putumayo’s mission of sharing music that is “guaranteed to make you feel good.”

Every year, Putumayo Kids CDs receive many national honors, including awards from Parents’ Choice, National Parenting Publications (NAPPA), Oppenheim Toy Portfolio and American Library Association Notable Recordings for Children. Our CDs regularly make the “Best of the Year” lists in educational and parenting magazines like Child, Parenting, Family Fun, the United Parenting Publications and many online parenting sites.

What is Putumayo Kids Educational Commitment?

Thousands of elementary school teachers and more than 300,000 students use Putumayo Multicultural Activity Kits and CDs in the classroom. Putumayo has also provided multicultural teacher training programs to school districts. The company has donated thousands of CDs and kits to schools and various causes. For each new Putumayo Kids release, at least one percent of Putumayo’s proceeds benefits relevant non-profit groups that support children, families, schools and other charities.
