1) Paperback Book Let's Sing and Learn in French by McGraw-Hill. I recently purchased this CD based soley on the Amazon description and customer reviews. Amazon´s description claims that this CD contains "20 original songs." That is not true. The CD I received has only a total of twelve songs on it-- only 60% of what its description claimed it would have. Thus I feel both disappointed and gypped. That being said, I don´t hate the CD, but neither do I love it. Overall I think it is okay. It has a running time of thirty minutes and some of the songs have fun sound effects. The music is often upbeat, even if the lyrics are not. But had I been able to preview this CD prior to purchase, I would not have bought it.

I much prefer the Family Circus/Complete Lyric Language French CD, which also has some sound effects, and has twenty-one fun, bilingual songs that run seventy minutes. I also like the Universe of Song, French, which is bilingual and runs about an hour¤

2) Paperback Book Let's Sing and Learn in French by McGraw-Hill. My children absolutely adore music, so this is a great way to learn French. Flip Flop French is a great addition to this if you have younger kids ages 3-5. Flip Flop French is based on a proven curriculum and they really enjoy "their workbook".¤

3) Paperback Book Let's Sing and Learn in French by McGraw-Hill. My sons love singing along with the CD and my 5 year old likes to follow along with the song book. We´d only played the CD once before when he began telling me what each of the songs was about and asking me to translate specific words he didn´t remember. I had to resort to the song book a couple of times, but the lyrics are so clear and easy to understand that it wasn´t often necessary. Parents who do not already speak French will like having the translations available. Compared to much of what is out there for bilingual texts and supplements, this in an excellent value.¤

4) Paperback Book Let's Sing and Learn in French by McGraw-Hill. Our whole family loves this CD! The music is fun and enjoyable for both adults and children alike. It is simple enough for our young son, but complex enough to be enjoyable for us as well. The book is fantastic, giving full French text and music for each of the songs, and then the English translation for all of them at the back of the book. I highly recommend this product as an early exposure to French language, and simply as an enjoyable listening experience all around.¤

5) Paperback Book Let's Sing and Learn in French by McGraw-Hill. Upbeat, this starts with a rock n roll version of Frere Jacques. This is nice. Post nursery rhymes, preschoolers and up, I´d say.
Noticeable Quebec (?) accent on some words here and there.¤

One of the oldest and best ways to teach kids languages, updated for the 21st century

Grownups have been using simple songs to teach young children the rudiments of languages since long before people danced sur le pont d´Avignon. Now the Let´s Sing and Learn series, CD Editions brings that tried-and-true method up-to-date for today´s modern kid. Each book/CD set contains collection of 20 original songs that combine catchy melodies with simple, cleverly-disguised lessoning vocabulary and expression.

And most importantly, the songs are easy to learn and fun to sing, making them the perfect medium for introducing children, ages three to six, to the words, accents, and rhythms of other languages.

Each book/CD set includes:

• 20 original tunes covering an array of everyday subjects
• A CD recording of the songs that provides a model of proper pronunciation and rhythm
• Simple musical scores that parents and teachers can use to accompany young learners
• English translations for each song and suggested actions
