Jessi Colter Sings Songs for Kids: Songs from Around the World is the 10th studio album by American country artist Jessi Colter, released in 1996 on Peter Pan Records, her first and only album of Children's music, and first studio album in 12 years. Her next album of new material, Out of the Ashes, would not be released until 2006.

Background

Colter had previously been known as a country music artist, primarily popular in the 1970s and 1980s. She focused her career towards her first children's album in 1996. Colter starred in her own home video for the project, with a guest appearance from husband and country artist, Waylon Jennings, who recited some of his poetry for the first time. The album consisted of twenty one tracks of children's music from different parts of the world, including Europe and Latin America. The album would later be re-released by the album's label in 2000, retitled as Around the World.
