In 1985 his tune Mona With The Children hit the top 20 in Canada and was nominated for a Juno. Douglas has composed prolifically for film and television and is an established children's entertainer who has written songs for top Canadian pre-school shows including Ants In Your Pants, Wee 3, Big and Small, and What’s Your News.
