In the book The Bilingual Edge: Why, When, and How to Teach Your Child a Second Language the authors, who are linguistic professors, say that all normal hearing children are born with the ability to hear the different subtle sounds in different languages. But around the age of ten months that ability to hear differences in sounds starts to decline. So, it makes sense that exposing your child to different languages should help to keep that ear open. Professor Parrot's Sound Beginnings seems like a good way to do that for those of us who do not have multiple languages spoken in the home.Professor Parrot's Sound Beginnings is a two CD set. The first CD has Spanish, French, German and Japanese. The second has Chinese, English, Hebrew and Russian. Each language is spoken for 15 minutes with background music that reflects that country's traditional music. It is not a fun CD but it certainly accomplishes the goal of exposing your child to the sounds of multiple languages.Don't buy this CD if you are hoping to use it to teach your child a language. If that is your goal, you are better off buying something from the Baby's First Word Series, like Baby's First Words in Spanish (Baby's First Words) or Baby's First Words in Chinese (Baby's First Words). My only complaint about these CDs are that there are two of them.
