Putumayo, the parent company behind one of my favorite children’s music production companies, Putumayo Kids, has just released a fantastic cd that is absolutely perfect for your holiday parties, for listening to while wrapping presents, or for just having on in the background while you relax and enjoy the holiday season. It’s called Celtic Christmas, and it is delightful!
The music on this cd doesn’t have any lyrics, and I really like that; the music itself has the opportunity to shine! Don’t just take my word for how great the cd is, though. Have a listen for yourself here! My personal favorite is O Come, O Come Emmanuel. What a gorgeous rendition!
Buy it!: Celtic Christmas is available for $14.98 and would make a wonderful addition to your holiday music collection.
Win it!: One lucky Stuff Parents Need reader will win your own copy of Celtic Christmas! 🙂
Be sure to enter my other current giveaways, found on the sidebar of my page.
Disclosure: I received a complimentary product for review purposes. The opinions expressed here are strictly my own.

My Hubby and I, along with our two hounds… a beagle and a basset, celebrate Christmas around the world tradition. One year it was Germany’s Traditional Christmas meal with some decorations handmade by me. Last year it was Italy’s turn and we had chosen Sicilian because of seafood. This year we are doing Greece with a leg of lamb. I am busy getting the handmade decorations finished!
We have been doing this tradition ever since we married… ten years now!
Sue Bunting says

I love Little Drummer Girl!
Wendy O. says
Holidays are spent at my parents house & my grandma’s house. My husband’s parents are always out of state for the holidays, so my family always wins by default. 🙂 Holidays are so much less stressful when we don’t have to drive all over the state! We go to Grandma’s Christmas Eve and spend the rest of the time with my parents.
Amy T says
my holiday plans include spending time with my kids! My twin “babies” will be one and my toddler….that should keep me busy!
