If We Could Talk to the Animals was the 15th and last Kidsongs video made with only children and adults before The Kidsongs Television Show premiered on PBS stations, having been released in October 1993.

Unlike other Kidsongs titles, If We Could Talk to the Animals retained the KidVision cover art when Sony Wonder re-released it in 1997.

It took 14 episodes of the first season for all songs to appear on The Kidsongs Television Show.

This music video show aired on PBS as a special presentation on November 1, 1998.

Synopsis[]

Wouldn't it be wonderful to talk to animals? The Kidsongs Kids learn to chat with a chimpanzee, giggle with a guinea pig and discuss in rhinoceros. Elephants and eagles, buffaloes and beagles and many more animals join the cast of this animal adventure. With some music, magic and imagination, you too will be singing and laughing along with a merry menagerie of animal friends.[1][2]
