Rating: Summary: Could I be missing something? Review: I am suprised by the other reviews on here. I feel like I must be missing something.
I guess the music is cute to listen to and probably more enjoyable for my 9 yr old son but as far as learning anything from it, I can't possibley imagine how anyone could.
The tape has songs, the book has some (? who knows, maybe all --can't read it) of the lyrics written in Russian without any translation. There is NO TRANSLATION in the book or on the tape (with the exception for when they are counting to 10 on the tape).
That's it!! Nothing more! How are we supposed to learn anything from that?? I feel like we wasted our money.
Rating: Summary: Russian for the younger set Review: I thought this was a very cute introduction to Russian. The tape is a great idea because you can tell if you are pronouncing words and phrases correctly. It could have been improved by using traditional Russian songs instead of translated American songs. Also--I could live without the guy oversinging the songs in English. All in all, a very good way to support your child's interest in Russian language.
Rating: Summary: To help you understand you kids! Review: My husband is Russian and my kids understand and speak Russian, This tape and book helped me learn to pick out words when I hear them in a conversation. Now my in-laws have conversations and I answer them in English. Also my daughter loves singing the songs.
