As a mother trying to teach my 3 year-old son Spanish, I enjoy this CD greatly, the songs are already familiar to the kids, and their learning capacity, even on a foreign language, is trully impressive, but most of all, my son loves it!

The absence of a lot of instruments makes the words on this CD very EASY TO UNDERSTAND. I already knew the English words to the songs ("Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star," "Old MacDonald Had a Farm," etc.) Because the singer pronounced each word very clearly, I quickly learned Spanish vocabulary while driving in my car.

The simplicity of the accompaniment and the familiarity of the songs to the English speaker facilitates understanding of the Spanish lyrics. The artist has a nice voice and the words are individually enunciated making it easy to sing along. My children enjoy this CD and it is fun to see them picking up another language through music!!

I really wanted and fully expected to love this CD. Unfortunately it sounds like it was recorded in someone's living room using a Casio for musical accompaniment. The woman has a nice singing voice and I appreciate that the songs have been slightly slowed to allow non-Spanish speakers more time to process the Spanish sounds, however overall I think of this as an amateur product.

My kids loved it, they started singing along after the first time they heard it. They wanted to listen to it over and over again! It has helped expand their Spanish vocabulary.

This has been my child's favorite CD for the past 3 months! (since the day we received it) It has been a great influence on them in learning Spanish. I highly recommend this CD to anyone with children.

This is one of those children's CD's that you really hope gets lost or smashed before you have to hear it again. It's an example of good intentions, bad results. I speak Spanish fluently, and wanted to share it with my daughters through music. These songs are strangely translated, difficult to understand, and for both reasons, hard to sing along with. My girls cannot imitate the sounds and words, like they can on other Spanish CDs for children (for example, the Orozco CDs are fantastic).
Furthermore, the background music is digital/mechanical/metallic - grating.
Good things I can say is that there are melodies the children recognize, and the woman's pronunciation and elocution are pretty good.
However, I do not recommend this CD to other parents.

my kids did not like this. i thought it was interesting, but the sound quality was less than professional and there were no lyrics.

I speak Spanish, and thought I would give this a shot for my music loving daughter, but neither one of us were interested for long. I guess we're spoiled with other, much better sounding Spanish kids music (Juan Luis Orozco for one!!)

Not a huge Fan. While the songs were familiar didn't really like the singing or the tempo of the cd. It's just ok
