What others say about Whai Mai!:
My 16 month old daughter and I love your Te Reo Singalong books and Whai Mai is our favourite! It’s such a catchy tune and the words are easy to learn. She constantly pulls them off her bookshelf and sits flicking through the pages, looking at the pictures and words. When I put Whai Mai on, she starts dancing to it.
