Aside from being one of Australia's best loved and respected actors, Justine Clarke is well known to pre-schoolers and early school-age kids for her role as presenter on ABC TV's much-loved Play School. In October 2005, Justine released her first album of original songs for children, aptly named I Like To Sing! The CD has been a runaway success... and now the album is brought to a vibrant and entertaining life with the much-anticipated release of I Like To Sing! on DVD. Full of catchy and well crafted melodies penned by composer and Play School pianist Peter Dasent, I Like To Sing! is a series of video clips set to the music from the album. All of your favourites are included; swing with Justine in The Dancing Chicken, move to the fresh calypso beats of Watermelon, tap your toes with The Gumtree Family and of course sing your heart out with the genius pop of I Like To Sing. Flawlessly produced and directed by Marcelle Lunam, I Like To Sing! is a refreshing and unique alternative that appeals to just about everyone. Boys, girls, Mums, Dads and even grandparents will love the warm, funny songs and exciting, dynamic visuals that bring each track to life. The same attention to detail given to writing the songs that made the album such a hit has been given to crafting the perfect children's DVD... the lighting, choreography, colour and movement enrich the viewers experience, encouraging them to watch again and again. Before you know it, the dance routines will be second nature to you and your child and you too will be moving and grooving with Justine and her talented team of dancers. Which one is your favourite?
