A few words about the brand. Putumayo World Music was established in 1993 and, interestingly, grew out of (can you believe it?) Putumayo clothing company. The company owes its success to the distinctive art of Nicola Heindl and in fact she has painted over eighty (!) colourful album covers for Putumayo World Music. Her bald colours, simple lines and mesmerizing scenes match Putumayo’s philosophy, "guaranteed to make you feel good!", just perfectly. A keen traveller herself she found her inspiration during her trips to India, Sri Lanka, Cameroon, Morocco, Tanzania, Panama and numerous European countries. As for the music, the company has established its unique blend of world music which is upbeat and melodic; it appeals to traditional and contemporary audiences. Coupled with creative retail marketing, Putumayo World Music, undoubtedly, developed a unique, easily recognised brand identity.&lt;br /&gt;As with Putumayo’s previous projects targeting families with children, &lt;a href="http://www.edesteem.com.au/store/WsDefault.asp?One=1611"&gt;Hawaiian Playground &lt;/a&gt;creates a playful and easy going atmosphere for families to enjoy and relax. It features the sounds of ukuleles, steel guitars and harmonious vocals. The album is, unfortunately, a bit short but undeniably charming. Customers are welcome to listen to a sound file from this CD and purchase the album on &lt;a href="http://www.edesteem.com.au/store/default.asp"&gt;our website&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3119275542951056469-1917809887358627668?l=educationalesteem.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://educationalesteem.blogspot.com/feeds/1917809887358627668/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3119275542951056469&amp;postID=1917809887358627668' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3119275542951056469/posts/default/1917809887358627668'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3119275542951056469/posts/default/1917809887358627668'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://educationalesteem.blogspot.com/2008/02/hawaiian-playground-is-here.html' title='Hawaiian Playground is here!'/><author><name>Ella</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17918329795156233824</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='02053120505203515030'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HJec6Vmdt-g/R8E2B3XWHmI/AAAAAAAAADY/TqKkp9DtPcY/s72-c/hawaiianpl.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119275542951056469.post-3809870032091507113</id><published>2008-03-14T05:58:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-12-11T16:46:37.252-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='New releases'/><title type='text'>Mother Goose in Action</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://www.edesteem.com.au/store/WsDefault.asp?One=1742"&gt;&lt;img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5177582092221523218" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HJec6Vmdt-g/R9p3expJpRI/AAAAAAAAAEA/wElKpPvNjy8/s200/image001.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Enticing, imaginative and fun!!! A delightful new release loaded with action and movement for young children aged 2-5. And what a fantastic idea to combine familiar characters, Mother Goose, Humpty Dumpty, Baa Baa Black Sheep and many more, with new music to keep children physically active. The CD is well paced, easy to follow and very engaging. It is suitable for child care centers, kindergarten programmes, preschool centers and home use. The CD is accompanied by activity notes, lyrics and all the actions.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/3119275542951056469-3809870032091507113?l=educationalesteem.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://educationalesteem.blogspot.com/feeds/3809870032091507113/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=3119275542951056469&amp;postID=3809870032091507113' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3119275542951056469/posts/default/3809870032091507113'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/3119275542951056469/posts/default/3809870032091507113'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://educationalesteem.blogspot.com/2008/03/mother-goose-in-action.html' title='Mother Goose in Action'/><author><name>Ella</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/17918329795156233824</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='02053120505203515030'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_HJec6Vmdt-g/R9p3expJpRI/AAAAAAAAAEA/wElKpPvNjy8/s72-c/image001.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3119275542951056469.post-6992070827191156693</id><published>2008-02-22T07:36:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2008-02-24T00:42:59.158-08:00</updated><title type='text'>Educational Esteem's Blog is born!</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;Amazing Shannon from &lt;a href="http://www.qtblogcreations.com/"&gt;http://www.qtblogcreations.com/&lt;/a&gt; has finally taken our blog off the ground.
