Welsh versions must be equivalent to the English materials, if applicable e.g. if the English version includes rhyme, the Welsh version must rhyme.* The complete package must be provided within the allocated budget - there is no plan to allocate additional funding to this work beyond the current project.* There will be no guaranteed purchase of the materials following this project- this piece of work aims to develop and pilot the proposed intervention in Welsh, not provide it to end users.* End users may include childcare settings, schools and other organisations or practitioners working with children aged up to 5 years.
