Spanish for Children with Three Audio CDs, Third Edition

My 3rd grader has been working through this for a couple of months now and loves it. He's picked up quite a bit. He systematically went through the whole thing as part of home school and is starting again. I was worried he would refuse to do it more than once (I thought it would be good for additional practice), but he's enjoyed it enough he doesn't mind restarting. I'm going to have to check if there is a next-level volume after he's mastered this one.If it matters to you, we also bought the French program of this same variety for our daughter. It seems to be the same format, same games, etc for both. I'm pleased with that because they are both at about the same fluency level in their respective languages. I can ask what one is learning today and expect the other is basically the same. (I have overheard conversations such as these: "I learned the colors today!" "Hey, that's cool. Me, too! How do you say 'blue' in Spanish? This is how you say it in French.")This is a pretty good and cost-effective language program for elementary aged home schoolers.

Very disappointed in the product, word phrases all together and not broken down enough for children, im buying another program, this was a waste for us

I agree with the previous reviewer that the quality of the CD is not the best-- the children's voice do sound far away. And also, the CD track is not numbered on the page or the particular exercise. You'll have to fast forward or rewind to get to a particular spot. Another issue with this book is that the workbook is not great. It doesn't really go with each lesson of the textbook.Despite the problems I mentioned above, this is a really fun Spanish curriculum for kids. My daughter (age 5) is picking up tons of Spanish vocabulary from this curriculum. And she absolute loves the songs included on the CD. I would definitely recommend this curriculum to anyone trying to teach their kids Spanish at home.

This is a great little spanish program for kids. The book is colorful with lots of pictures and games. The songs are on the cheesy side, but my kids like it. I wouldn't use it for kids much older than 10 though.

It has some interesting lessons for the kids. But the audio is terrible. Besides that, it has the same Spanish learning songs as another cd we have (that has a better quality sound). I also don't like the references to the workbook in every lesson, even though we aren't listening to the workbook CD. We listen to this in the car, and having multiple kids trying to work on a workbook is impossible. Plus, once you've filled out the workbook, listening to the CD tell you to do it again would be annoying.

Brought this as a gift for my nephew. He loves it!

We received a random wrong cd with this item.

This is easy to throw on in the background while my 4.5 year old plays freely. Sometimes we just listen while we play, sometimes we do it with the workbooks that came with it. both ways are enjoyable for us.
