The album, from the creators and stars of the beloved Ms. Rachel series, marks the duo’s debut as recording artists and features a collection of joyful, imaginative songs created for children and families. Across 23 tracks, Rachel and Aron bring together original songs they have written over the years, along with beloved children’s classics. After years of families asking for a Ms. Rachel album, I’m So Happy brings those favorite songs together on an album for the first time, giving children and caregivers a way to listen, sing and dance along wherever they are. For the album, the songs were approached individually, with some featuring expanded arrangements, new orchestration, additional sections and live instrumentation.

The collection showcases the warmth, musicianship, and research-based approach that have made Ms. Rachel a trusted favorite for millions of families around the world. From original tracks written by Rachel and Aron, such as "I'm So Happy" and "Big Feelings," to richly reimagined versions of classics such as "Hop Little Bunnies" and "Icky Sticky Bubblegum," the album brings together songs that have become a beloved part of daily life for children and their families. Among the album’s varied arrangements, “I Love a Rainbow” builds on its bossa nova feel with a new bridge and live strings, while “Caterpillar,” first heard on the show with piano accompaniment, was expanded into a full orchestral arrangement. The album is available on vinyl in a number of exclusive color variants as well as on CD, HERE, and as an iTunes exclusive album download featuring three special messages from Ms. Rachel. 

Best known to families as Ms. Rachel and Mr. Aron, Rachel and Aron Accurso are the creators of one of the world's most beloved early childhood brands. What began as a resource to help young children develop speech, language, and learning through music and play has grown into a global phenomenon, with their show Ms. Rachel reaching more than 21 million YouTube subscribers and nearly 17 billion views. The world of Ms. Rachel has since expanded to include bestselling books, toys, a hit Netflix collection, and now I'm So Happy—the duo's first album—continuing their mission to help children learn, communicate, and thrive through the power of music and play.
