FunSongs Christmas Shows!

On Thursday 22nd November FunSongs inaugurated the first Christmas shows of the season at Scuola Primaria Padre Marella in Bologna. Teachers at the school decided to book the show a month before Christmas in order to allow themselves enough time in class to work on the "I Love Christmas" worksheets available on the FunSongs website.

FunSongs at Feltrinelli International in Florence


Shop window of Feltrinelli, Via Cavour , Florence
The FunSongs CD "Action Songs for Learning English" ISBN 0954396316 is the glue that has held our relationship with prestigious Italian bookstore chain Feltrinelli together since 2004.
On Saturday 27th October Emelie and Charles took a train down to Florence from Bologna to present the "FunSongs Approach". Given the modest but steady sales the CD generates for them, Feltrenelli are happy with the product which they sell in their branches in Milan, Padua, Bologna, Rome, Naples and of course Florence.
