WOW!!! As a mom and a Latina our entire family (8 months, 3 years and two adults) were glued to the TV with BOCA the puppet teaching Spanish & English in a funny and simplistic way meant for young children. The music under the movie was upbeat, the puppet spoke clearly in both languages and now our little ones ask for BOCA every morning, noon and night. I even got their music CDs as an extra language learning tool for the car. You all at BOCA BETH rock! Gracias/Thanks.

What a wonderful and upbeat product!! We purchased this DVD for our 11 month old granddaughter. Jess will sit, bounce to the music and holds out her hands for Boca to reappear. The way the DVD is set up allows her mom to show just a room at a time, or go a bit longer if her attention holds up. Boca is entertaining, lively, and fun to watch. We feel the music is great, with easy to learn lyrics. What a great learning experience this provides for the young child. Keep it up Boca Beth!!!!

We introduced the Boca Beth language learning program to our 2 year old daughter and she instantly fell in love with it. She loves music and movement and really seemed to appreciate being introduced to a second language through songs, egg shakers and maracas. Within two short weeks of watching the Boca Beth DVD, she was asking for things in Spanish. Every morning she asks if I am going to get in 'la ducha' (the shower). She calls bananas 'platanos.' She often uses the Spanish words for towels, cups and bowls. She learned all of these things from Boca Beth!

This is a boring dvd for a 2 year old. It introduces some words and occasionally add a senstense which I think is too long and difficult to learn. All words and sentences will only prononce once or twice. The word on screen is kind of small to see (with a 18'' tv). Not sure about the spanish quality since I'm not a Spanish native speaker. In conclusion, it's kind of on the boring side and I won't recommend it. Try "kids love Spanish" instead. It's not perfect but I think it's better than this one.

A tiresome takeoff on Baby Einstein, without the inspiration. I don't believe any child's attention will be held by this decidedly unanimated and uninspired pedantic puppet. If you can sustain attention as an adult, you will learn the words and phrases as advertised, but it is not worth the money. All the dialogue is very obviously an anglo speaking Spanish, so don't look for a "native speaker" effect either. (We know the words, but not the tune.) The music throughout is repetitive, and the A/V quality is poor.
