Commissioned by ACCAC to assist in the teaching of the Cwricwlwm Gymreig in schools

12 original Welsh songs for children by Caryl Parry Jones, Mal Pope and Robat Arwyn.

The music and Welsh lyrics have been written in order that they are suitable for pupils with Welsh as a second language as well as Welsh speakers.

The pack includes the songs notated in full together with guitar chords, and a CD that will enable pupils to sing along whilst listening to the recording. For each song there are two tracks: one vocal and the other a backing track, for karaoke singing.

The collection is suitable for class singing with pupils aged 7-11.
