The Children’s Music Web Awards 2005
WINNERS
Our Children's Music Web Awards are decided in a multi-step judging process. First, family judges screen the candidates and make preliminary decisions. Then, classrooms and day care centers worldwide pick their favorites. Children's voices predominate every step of the way.
