• I Agree - The Other One Is Better 25 March, 2008
After an introduction to Spanish, my students really enjoy CD's - especially ones that feature "real " conversations or catchy songs. This one is pretty good, but I agree with the other reviewers, the vocabulary that is focused on does not go as well with other textbooks or curriculum, and so is not reinforcing or building confidence near as much as it could. I recommend Hop Skip and Sing as well (by Ana Lomba) but it's a little young for my 6 year old already.
As with all CD's, I do recommend flash cards or something to go along with it, to help concrete the information and the experience. Immersion works, but only after a foundation (however small) has been built. Presenting the target language (Spanish in this case) in many formats will produce better results, faster, and longer lasting!

• Not Nearly As Great As Fun Spanish 17 April, 2007
If you are looking for one CD to help your kids learn Spanish, don't get this one, get BETH MANNERS FUN SPANISH FOR KIDS. This one misses many opportunities to teach Spanish--there are whole songs done only in English, not to mention some rather strange and drippy information about Spain, Columbus etc. Even on an imaginary tour of Spain one learns mostly obscure words--for instance the Spanish word for creme brulee. I'm sure your 7 year old need to know that one! On the other hand FUN SPANISH is a complete joy, and teaches MUCH of this same material plus a whole lot more. I just don't think there's any comparison between the two. My daughter likes this fine, but nine times out of ten she'll request the FUN SPANISH tape-- she loves the Goldilocks story told in Spanish.

• A Hit With The Grandkids 22 November, 2007
Just like the other Beth Manners's CDs this one was a hit. Very practical language - and this CD includes quite a bit of culture - so very useful. They love all the games a music.

• Language And Culture 12 September, 2007
I like this CD because it teaches lots of Spanish language and also adds culture. Love the little trip they take to Barcelona. When I visited Spain with my three kids, they could not wait to taste Crema Catalana because they learned about it on this excellent CD. And - they ordered it in Spanish ( with a little help from me). Was quite delicious!
I speak five languages and I have found that language and culture should be taught together.
The pronunciation is authentic and clear. Spanish is spoken with many different pronunciations, all over the world. This pronunciation is typically Latin American. It is important for learners to hear all pronunciations, in order to develop a good ear. We have all of Beth Manners' CDs and my kids love them all.

• Most Interactive Cd 05 November, 2007
We have all of Beth Manners' CDs . This one is the most interactive. For example the children play Simon Says along with the CD and they do the Mexican Hat Dance. There is plenty of very practical vocabulary and phrases but it also includes Spanish culture - a trip to Barcelona - where they eat delicious Spanish foods such as gazspacho soup and crema catalana. Makes my kids want to travel! We love this one too!!
