REVIEWS <>“Learning French has never
been so
much fun. This wonderful program introduces children to the language
using a setting that they can easily relate to and non-intimidating
vocabulary. It’s young Penelope’s birthday and her family is joining
her for the party. The celebration is the basis for seven lessons
introducing greeting phrases, and words for family members, colors,
parts of the body, food, numbers, and gifts. Each lesson includes brief
skits with dialogue using the target words. Following each skit, one of
the characters repeats the key phrases as the vocabulary is written on
the screen in French and English. Several of the lessons include upbeat
songs that contain the targeted vocabulary and will have children
singing along in no time. A comprehensive phrase review and song
booklet is included that contains all of the dialogue, translations,
and answers to the quizzes. A must-have for every collection.”
“This DVD should be in every home. I thoroughly enjoyed my first lesson
in Spanish. Each lesson is broken down into short meaningful segments
that teach through repetition and song. Your children will play this
one over and over again. I encourage parents to sit down with their
children and reinforce the lessons they are learning. This one is a
must have for home schoolers and parents who want their children to
grow up knowing another language.”
"We watched Italian for Kids during all
the children's Italian classes. It was really a lot of fun. Children
enjoyed the videos and had a good time playing the ‘What time is it?’
remote control game."
<>"I watched the Chinese for
Kids
DVD and really enjoyed the whole production. It is a great learning
tool at a beginner's level. The user interactive features were great to
use and supportive of learning. I think it would be good for parents to
use to learn basic Chinese. Younger children in K and Pre-K could also
use it as a tool."
"Anybody wanting an introduction to Mandarin Chinese would greatly
benefit from this video. The teaching methods are clear, concise, and
repeated for emphasis each time. Each video has an instructional
booklet with phonetic pronunciations for each word. The cartoon
characters are cute, without being cutesy, they don't detract from the
message: to teach the basics of an intricate language. The tones that
are characteristic of the Mandarin dialect are taught with pictures and
sounds that any young child can grasp. One word, spelled exactly the
same, has four different meanings, depending on where the inflection is
placed and the tonal quality in which it is spoken. This is a quality
product, recommended for anyone wanting to connect with the Chinese
culture."
“I've reviewed the video tape Billy and
Benboo and really like the Multi-Cognition Approach on which it is
based. I also like the organization of the story. I believe that both
children and adults who deal with children will find it entertaining
while learning Chinese."

"Learn Chinese with Billy and Benboo is a wonderful beginners level
video tape which teaches children in a fun and effective way to learn
Mandarin Chinese. Billy, his family, and their dog Benboo help to teach
every day vocabulary words and phrases appropriate for situations such
as meeting and greeting, bathing, playing with friends, eating and
counting in Chinese. The lessons are learned through fun stories and
sing-along songs. The video does an excellent job explaining the
various tones and helping to develop proper pronunciation. I highly
recommend this video."

"Several songs throughout the video make
the whole process fun! Literally, you can dance with the songs while
you and your children are learning - that's what I did with my kids.
The short sentences are easy to follow, and for every scene you get a
quick review on what you just learned. The multiple story sessions are
situations you bump into daily. It is amazing that all of the above is
packed in just 30 minutes!"
