Reviews / Votes
This resource offers simple enough songs that even the youngest children can actually sing and participate in making the music. It features a good range of musical activities, including creative opportunities for dance, instruments and singing, all clearly set out in age-specific sections. ~ Comments from judges, Teach Early Years Awards 2018More details
