Mum, do you mean the weekly session where ABC Radio would have a show where we all got out the "Let's Have Music" books and sung along? I had forgotten all about that until today

Peter Coombe is still actually very popular in pubs and uni bars apparently.
Toffee apple and Slippery Dip were my favourites
There was also a song called "Right said Fred" as well which I enjoyed.
"Right said Fred, all together, one each step and steady as we go - ooh ahh - Couldn't fix it, couldn't even lift it, we were getting nowhere - and so we- had a cup of tea"

There was also a song about going away to camp, can't remember much more detail about it though.
I also remember those little musical record/books, might have been Disney types of books. You follow the story from the voice recordings on the record, and when its time to turn the page, it makes a special noise.
I can also recall the Viewmaster Kaleidoscopes where you could view stories such as Supeman.

I recall "Digger" readers in years 1 and 2.
Learning to read in the first 6 or so months at school, the teacher would hold up a little card with the letter, and somethng starting with that letter eg. A (with an apple diagram).
"4 Square" played each lunch and recess.
