Watnots Music - About Us

Watnots produces fun and educational musicals for children to enjoy singing and performing. Watnots was setup by Sarah Medeiros and Alastair McPherson who have been writing together since 2002. They also produce musicals written by other writers and composers.

We want Watnots to be easy, simple and accessible to use. With each musical we provide a piano score, script, lyric sheets and a backing track CD (sung and unsung).

We hope you enjoy our music!

Endorsement

Watnots Music produces musicals especially designed for children to perform, with tunes that are catchy, upbeat, and enjoyable. In fact Samantha - a very special friend of mine - can't stop singing them! And the ingenious thing is that without realising it Samantha's learning facts whilst singing songs. What better way to liven up learning!

Of course the educational benefits are countless: team work, discipline, training and memory, (to name a few). Add to this, the sheer joy of taking part and receiving praise - important for a child's sense of self-worth - and you have a very attractive package.

Children love it, mums and dads love it and I highly recommend it!!!
