Caoimhín and Rath,

Thank you for the correction and extra information on camps. Yes, I did previously post those requests.

Something that I think I had been looking for, but lost track of, was VHS or DVD tools to pique my childrens' interest in Irish language; to start priming.

http://www.comhluadar.ie have just published 3 videos of childrens cartoons for different age groups. They will be PAL format though.

http://www.fiosfeasa.com has some Childrens CD ROMs, but I find they are less good then their competitors in other languages (in my case German, where there is wonderful stuff) so kids lose interest quickly.

Des,

Maybe Cailín can post some suggestions for you.
I'd recommend the Muzzy videos - both children and adults enjoy them and I think they're worthwhile. They remind me of the Sesame Street approach. Available from Telegael, Spiddal, Co. Galway, Tel (091) 533460;
and from Multilingual Books at http://www.multilingualbooks.com/gaelic.html

I visted the sites; they're helpful, thanks. If anyone knows of others, I'd like to check them.
