If you want to widen your children's horizons,this is the book for you.There are 43 songs from as many different countries,and almost as many different languages.Each song is sung in native and English language.With included maps,data on each country,various letters (Indian,Chinese,Arabic),and a sing-along cassette or CD it's not only fun but also something to learn from. So,where is number 2?
Talk about multicultural! This music is a delight! Most of the songs are sung by children. Each singer introduces him or herself in English as well as their native language, then they sing a traditonal folk song! Each piece is short, the music isvery catchy! My son was 3 when we got this and after 1,00's of listening hours...at 6, he still loves it! He has learned the names of countries, continents as well as foreign words!His teachers have borrowed it and it has brought many magical musical moments to many children!
I purchased this cd last week to use as a springboard for studies of other cultures with my kids (ages 8, 5, and 3). It is GREAT!We listen to it in the van and it feels like we are visiting other countries when we're just on our way to the grocery store! The kids love it...even the songs that they don't understand. The songs are introduced by a national in the nation's language. In many cases, these are children. Then the kids translate their introduction into english. The song is then sung in the native language and sung again in english. My eight year old loves reading the native language while it's being sung...and often tries to sing it with them.I am amazed at the translation because I know it took work to find out what these songs mean and how to make it fit musically into english. Very good quality work.
This CD is splendid. Not only did the creators pick fun songs but they also had them sung by native speakers. The kids learn very quickly which country has what feel by the singer announcing who s/he is and from which country. Having the song in English after the original allows for everyone to sing along. Great intro to world music!
Fun songs that span the globe...fun to hear but not easy to learn and sing with kindergarteners.
I loved all of the wee sing sets as a kid, but this was my favorite. When I found out that it was available on CD, I snapped it up! Fun children's songs from around the world in both English and their native languages. You won't be able to resist singing along! Includes lullabies as well as timeless children's songs.
I originally received the cd as a gift. My son loves it so much (since he was 2) that I needed to buy another one because the first one got a scratch that was just too unbearable. My kids are now 4+ and 2.5 years old and still enjoy it tremendously, as do I, and that's the real plus.
Purchased this CD almost 20 years ago for my grandchildren. I just bought 5 more to share with family and friends with small grandchildren and for my daughter who teaches 5th graders. Great activities and songs for children of all ages.
