Standard Delivery on this personalised product takes 5-7 working days and costs €4.95 per shipment.

For each album, the music and lyrics have been carefully crafted to be both educational and fun, adding to you child’s daily learning experience. Our aim is to provide good quality contemporary music suitable for very young children, which adults can also enjoy. All of the music and lyrics have been written by chart-topping singer/songwriters who have performed with artists such as Dodgy, Pulp, Catatonia, and Robbie Williams, and also happen to be parents of young children. The bedtime story is by a professional writer with over 20 years experience, who is a mother herself.

This CD is aimed primarily at the under 7’s.  At every stage of your child’s development they will learn from and enjoy the music on the CDs. From birth, babies love the sound and rhythm of music, at 4 months they recognise their names, as toddlers they understand the lyrics, and until early school they will sing along to the songs and do all of the actions.

This CD is professionally recorded and reproduced to the highest standards.

Silver Balloon supports the important work on infant safety carried out by The Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths and New Horizon, the charity of which Jon Snow is patron and which offers fantastic support to vulnerable youngsters. In the last year, Silver Balloon has made donations totalling more than €3000 to these charities.
