Welcome to A Land Very Close
Some of the music for children (and their people) that I have recorded over the years has moved over into Yoto form!
Personally I am constantly looking for ways of listening to music and stories with my kids WITHOUT it being through my phone. Yoto is a great way!
There are songs to sing, songs to play, songs of seasons and songs to relax.
Buy the Yoto cards here
or you can download the music to make your own cards here x
The new Children’s CD available now! Featuring excellent guests and the brilliant Children’s chorus!

I started making this collection of albums when I realised how much music helped me keep playful and connect with my child during challenging times. If you’d like to download the music but money’s a bit tight at the moment, please do click this link.
I believe music can cheer, soothe, invigorate, inspire and educate… most of all it’s a vibe changer!
Please spread the word and get singing!
Love Ceilidh-jo x

Here’s a lovely review from Susanne Gillis (mother of 2) - “I have found no other [children’s music] that even comes close to this wonderful collection. The music has it’s roots in history but speaks to our 21st century kids. It charms my 2 young kids into blissful contentment as they are transported to a magical land. I would recommend this album for all families, not only but also as an antithesis to our charts filled with cheap plastic pop. It inspires our children to play real music”
