"My son is 4yrs old and goes to Spanish class once a week. He really enjoys this music and so does my 2yr old who is just learning to speak english. Never too young to start the awareness of another language. We play it on the way to school. It sings one verse in English and then in Spanish, unlike some cd's that seem to be for kids who only speak Spanish. Great starter music."
Repetition Please, and Pleasing in Repetition

"As a parent of a 4 and 1/2 year old boy, I hear a lot of CDs over and over! Here, you won't mind, and you and your little ones will learn some Spanish along the way. Well blended w/Spanish and English and the music itself is very beautifully executed. Maria Del Rey's voice is lovely. Great fun CD to add the early years in classroom setting or at home. (Other languages are avail., but have not heard them yet). This CD is great, not grating!"
Great English/Spanish songs for all ages

"This is a fun way to learn either English or Spanish. Each song alternates back and forth between English and Spanish, with a review of simple Spanish words at the end. Many songs are the ones my daughter (Kindergarten) already knows (like Old McDonald), so it makes learning foreign words easier. Plus fun musical arrangements (like one with Pirates)! We look forward to more music from Maria Del Rey! We are buying a second copy to donate to my daughter's classroom."
A MUST HAVE!

"I love this CD! My 15 month old son & I listen to it every day in the car. The songs are short, peppy, & very helpful in learning Spanish. The songs all have a phrase in English, then in Spanish. I've learned so many words just singing along. The CD flyer has full translations. The singer is very clear & easy to understand. I also bought "Diez Deditos", which is quite popular. It like it, but this one is much more learnable."
A Delightful and fun learning tool!

"My four-year old loves this CD! Her older sister is learning Spanish in Jr. High School and now the little one is too! She loves repeating the review words after each song. The music is upbeat and fun and sometimes just plain silly. Her favorites are: "Sailing, Sailing," (she calls it 'The Pirate song' ho ho ho and a bottle of milk!) the jazzy "Shortnin' Bread" and together we dance to "La Bamba". This CD is a real kid (and mom) pleaser."
