More fun for preschoolers & family

Childhood Songs (50x3'30)

Every child knows nursery rhymes. They hear them in school and on CD’s received at one time or another as presents.

All these nursery rhymes have one point in common : they are from another era, and were composed long ago. You might find them a bit old-fashioned. Yet children today know them just as we did when we were their age. These nursery rhymes are timeless.
