Summary: Easy to learn . . .
Review: I am a single mother of a two year old daughter living in Chula Vista, California. I am wanting my daughter to learn and speak another language, spanish, other than english. After purchasing "Learn Spanish with Carlos & Chiquitita" and practicing the spanish with my daughter, I am amazed at how quickly she and I are learning spanish together. The DVD has made learning fun and easy.

Review: I am thrilled with "Learn Spanish with Carlos and Chiquitita". My Son Steven and I both enjoyed the fun energetic format. Although I bought it for my son, I also benefited from the lesson plans. I was most pleased and surprised with just how much I learned from the simple and upbeat musical pieces. My son is still singing them this morning. He was so enthralled with the DVD that he has been asking for his own Chiquitita. I am sure we will go through this curriculum again and again. It is a wonderful product. Thank you very much Language Tree.

Summary: Effective Home Teaching Tool
Review: I am using this DVD, along with books and audio tapes, to teach Spanish to my 10-year old son at home. After watching this DVD a few times, he can already speak a few phrases in Spanish. Most importantly, he's doing so without any prompting from me. The format of this DVD is engaging and at a good pace for beginner students of Spanish. The focus is on the use of the language within different scenarios. I found this DVD to be an effective home teaching tool.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: An Excellent Introduction to Spanish
Review: I found this DVD to be a well-done and creative introduction to a very useful language. New vocabulary and phrases are introduced within the context of different "sketches" where the cartoon characters are in different situations (at dinner, at the farm, in the playroom, before going to sleep). Therefore, what is being taught is generally quite practical. My daughter can now say "please pass me the bread" in Spanish and answers with "gracias". This DVD may be a little fast-paced for younger children, but was appropriate for my 8-year old daughter. Since I don't speak Spanish, I found it very helpful that an English-speaking narrator (a funny lizard) sets up each scene. The dialogues, however, are completely in Spanish which was fine because we understood the context. We need more educational tools like this one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great educational video!!!!
Review: I have watched your Spanish DVD and really enjoyed it. I found the storybook approach to teaching a language to be quite easy to follow. The interactivity of the lessons made it enjoyable and entertaining. I think this is a great product and a quality video.

Summary: Me gusta!
Review: I wanted my 4-year old to start learning a foreign language now since most people seem to think the earlier, the better. Spanish seemed the obvious choice since it's so useful for career and travel.

I am buying her a variety of tools so that she maintains her interest in learning the language. Since she loves her Wiggles videos, I knew she would enjoy this learning format. She really enjoys "Learn Spanish with Carlos and Chiquita" and wants to watch the DVD over and over again. The characters are appealing and the music is fantastic - especially the salsa song with the farm animal sounds.

The video is broken down into six vignettes showing different daily situations. I liked the fact that the video not only shows what kids say, but also what parents say to kids. I "role-played" some of the lines with my daughter (I picked up some Spanish as well). She is also repeating some of the phrases in the video on her own.

The accompanying learning booklet is easy to read and not overwhelming. Overall, a fun and useful learning tool.
