A friend of mine has been running fantastic bilingual music classes (“Babi Bach”) for babies and small children for almost a year now. They’ve been a huge success locally and were the first Welsh language group ever to get to the finals of the “What’s On” awards earlier this year.
Now Penni is planning to make a bilingual CD of music for very young kids. Apparently there is room in the market for something with a more “modern” feel than a lot of the Welsh language children’s music available at the moment. She’s set up a project on the Kickstarter crowd-funding website to try an raise the £1500 capital they would need.

They’ve passed the half-way point, but will need to get all the rest in the next 9 days, or they won’t get a penny.
Anyone with small kids, (or money) might like to consider backing them, as a £20 pledge would get you an MP3 version of the album, once made. (For £150, you could get to sing backing vocals!)
Here’s an article on them from the local paper.
