5.0 out of 5 stars LOVE THIS VIDEO!, February 7, 2006

Mama in New Jersey "Maribel" (New Jersey) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Números y Figuras - Numbers and Shapes (DVD)

My children love this video... they love to count along in each segment as the numbers get progressive higher, and they adore the way the shapes transform into common objects. They sing and dance every time they watch, and already know most of the songs. Their spanish language skills are already better because they relate the spanish lyrics into conversational spanish. I love the songs and music, and the fact that my littlest one is really learning his numbers and shapes in Spanish from watching this.

5.0 out of 5 stars GREAT introduction to Spanish & counting, November 7, 2006

This review is from: Números y Figuras - Numbers and Shapes (DVD)

My two kids really like this video, they love the puppets and animated parts, and they love to count along, as they already know some Spanish numbers. I love this DVD because it has many well-known Spanish songs that I sang when I was growing up. Plus the paper insert in the case has all the lyrics, making it fairly easy for my wife (a non Spanish speaker) to help children learn the songs, and even she is now singing along. As a Latino with a bilingual family, I think it is great that there are DVDs like this - with native accents and great music - that really work well in what we try to achieve with teaching language to our children.

This review is from: Números y Figuras - Numbers and Shapes (DVD)

Thank you for this DVD, it put a smile in my kids face and mine too. My Toddler loves the video.Introduces babies and toddlers to numbers and shapes. Also it was wonderful to hear songs that I learned during my childhood. The songs are traditional Spanish Songs such as A la Feria de San Juan, Los pollitos dicen, El barco chiquito. I was happy to sing along with them (booklet with all songs is included). The kids like the puppets and The numbers and figures are repeated which I found to be great because my toddler repeats the words with them. My kids don't get bored watching the video, they want to see it over and over again
