Subject: Folklore: How to speak in an Australian accent?
Hi, old member (from a long time back). I'm a children's librarian currently working on an "international" program for kids, and I'm looking for a video that is a) kid-friendly and b) teaches elements of the accent. I can describe it well enough myself ("Start with Irish and add a twang") or I can point kids to Crocodile Hunter for an exaggerated version, but I'm looking for something more strictly educational that's not actually targeted at adults, but is still professional. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Jennifer Burdoo
