a Day in the Forest

This CD is an exciting contemporary composition created
by Mary and Cliohna Ni Aodain to promote and inspire
active learning and creative movement as a means for
storytelling in early childhood and primary classrooms.
There are two musical story versions on the CD, one with
a story narration and the other music only so that children
engage in using their own imaginations to create the
movement story. The music features five movements:
daybreak, morning, storm, rainbow and nightfall. “This is a
fantastic way to get young people into creative movement
and storytelling at the same time!”
