What to expect

This much-loved collection is full of action songs, calming songs for bedtime and happy songs to dance to – perfect for the classroom, choirs and for singing at home or in the car with mummy, daddy, grandma or grandad.

In the magical world of Apusskidu, children learn about animals and birds, counting, colours, transport, history and tales from around the world, as well as experiencing the pure enjoyment of these wonderful songs that have been loved for generations.

Also available as a 3 CD pack and as a sheet music songbook with easy accompaniments for piano or keyboard, guitar chords and full lyrics, plus simple play-along ideas for percussion, recorders or other instruments.
