It's OK, not great,
By World Traveler (Alabama) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Teach Me Japanese (Paperback and Audio Cassette): A Musical Journey Through the Day (Paperback)
I would recommend this set only because good Japanese learning tools for young children are so hard to find. The adult singers are not native speakers; if you buy this, tell your little listeners to concentrate on the way the native children singers pronounce words. The English 'translations' are merely the usual English lyrics; many words have been altered in the Japanese to fit the rhyme and rhythm. For example, the last line of 'Mary Had a Little Lamb' should be translated as "isn't it cute?" not "the lamb was sure to go."

This review is from: Teach Me Japanese (Paperback and Audio Cassette): A Musical Journey Through the Day (Paperback)
They say it is best to teach children second languages as young as possible, and the best way to do that isn't necessarily to stumble through a foreign language ourselves. This is a fun, exciting way to get aquainted with Japanese, to open a new door in the young mind for the language. My children, ages 6 and 3, love this tape, and are wearing it out. Within a few minutes they were picking up the lyrics in Japanese and relating them to English words too. Its fun for parents too.

This tape is designed for preschool - 1st grade only.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Teach Me Japanese (Paperback and Audio Cassette): A Musical Journey Through the Day (Paperback)
The songs are for preschool age children which my 5 year old daughter enjoyed, but the songbook does not have the English translation on the same page which makes it difficult to follow. My older children were not interested in this tape at all.
