Can anyone tell me where I can purchase new or second-hand? Am desperate for Welsh language books, dvds etc for very young children and babies. The booksites on-line tend to be very expensive
Am especially interested in books that are English-Welsh bilingual.
Lots of independent book shops have Welsh childrens books etc. Athough I'm in the West so it may be more common here. Carmarthen has a few shops that stock them. I'm sure WHSmiths had a small Welsh section in the Swansea branch.
Otherwise your local library should be able to source some for you if they don't stock them, but obviously you are only borrowing those.

I've had some off amazon. My children also watch Cyw on S4C, which we can get via sky as we live in Oxfordshire. Kids have a welsh speaking father and we are trying to get them to be as bilingual as possible.
Thank you for all the replies. Forgot to check in for a while!
I actually live in England, so that's why I'm a bit stumped to find books. The usual routes such as libraries and charity shops don't apply this side of the border.
Have a browse on gwales.com (the Welsh Books Council's website), and if you see anything you fancy have a look on abebooks.co.uk for second hand copies. My sister at the Old Post Office Bookshop in Blaenau Ffestiniog, deals in new and second hand books, and posts to customers. Her email is [email protected]

And the I just use the "people who bought this also bought" bit...
The bookshop in Carmarthen market is good if you can get there, we visit family there sometimes.
We have also had some from the library here in Oxfordshire as well, they take a couple of weeks to come in though.
And I look like a tramp and tramps like us
Baby we were born to walk

Will keep hunting the internet.
