On September 25, they will release I'm So Happy, their first album featuring 23 beloved original songs and reimagined classics from the series.
Inspired by the songs that have become staples for families around the world - including 'I'm So Happy,' 'Big Feelings,' 'Phonics,' and 'I Love You to the Moon' - the album celebrates the joyful, research-driven approach that has made Ms. Rachel one of the most influential children's educators today.

I'm So Happy has been years in the making, with the album actively developed over the last year and a half. Featuring songs that first became favorites on the Ms. Rachel YouTube series, each track was rerecorded and remixed with several receiving expanded new arrangements. Drawing on his extensive Broadway background, Mr. Aron reimagined the music alongside 19 vocalists and 42 instrumentalists across 15 different instruments, giving the beloved songs a rich, polished new sound while preserving the warmth that families know and love.
