THE MUSIC
Love the music you’ve heard at on our
Active Babies Smart Kids TV series?
We do too!!
Here is some information on our
wonderful musicians and how to purchase
their music.
Tessarose
Productions
Kiwis, Tessa Grigg and Brian Ringrose, formed Tessarose
Productions in 1999. The music (all 700 songs) has been
created with young children’s developmental needs and the
latest findings in early education in mind. The songs are simple and
slow enough for young children to understand and then respond to,
and the words repetitive and clear so children can sing along.
Tessa Grigg (B.Ed, Dip Tch (Primary) Dip Tch (ECE)
Tessa has a wide range of experience within the Early Childhood
Education field. She has taught in a Primary School, supervised a Preschool with specialist work in the sensory motor area, worked as a
Child and Family Therapist, taught Nanny students and has owned and
operated a GymbaROO centre for 9 years. Tessa’s experience in
teaching pre-school children spans 30+ years but the strength in her
experience is that is has been in a variety of settings.
Brian Ringrose: Entertainer
Brian has had over thirty years’ experience in the music business, both
in the recording field and as a performing artist. He has performed
both nationally and internationally and was part of the original
Invaders Band that played with Ray Columbus. Brian has worked for
television (a fifteen year involvement) and continues to play to live
audiences on a regular basis while working in his recording studio in
the daytime. Music produced by Brian has been sold internationally
with feedback that recognises his versatility and creative abilities.

Candylion
Wendy Van Kesteren and Christophe Magnan
Wendy and Christophe are a French/Australian team in work and life.
They have been performing, composing and writing songs together for
over 20 years. They live in France and perform regularly in Europe.
When Christophe is not entertaining he composes and records music:
producing albums for various projects, writing sound tracks for films,
web sites and advertisements.
Being parents, professional musicians and having friends in the
GymbaROO (TKG) team, the Active Babies Smart Kids TV series
provided a great opportunity for them to turn their hand to children's
music, with fabulous results!!
And so began Candylion.
Wendy "It has been very interesting to rewrite and 'play' with these
songs that hold such treasured memories for me. We hope you enjoy
Candylion's refreshed versions of these great songs and nursery
rhymes and that they help to create some loving and lasting memories
for you and your children too".
