Foreword
This compilation of music, songs and stories is a testament to the love of rhythm and music that is innate in children. We hope to promote the enjoyment of various types of music, incorporating the concept of music and play as a shared family experience. The Galway City & County Childcare Committee would like to thank all those artists who gave of their time freely, the Western Health Board who sponsored the project and Cuan Studios who helped us produce the collection. So "Tog Sos" and enjoy!
The Galway City & County Child-care Committee's role is to co¬ordinate, support and assist the development of quality childcare services in Galway.
