Cha, Cha, Cha (Spanish learning songs/Canciones infantiles)

During my son's year of preschool at our local YMCA, a mother-daughter duo would come in as volunteers every Tuesday and teach the class Spanish through music. Since they always were wrapping things up around the same time that I was arriving to pick up my son, I often joined the class for the last few songs. During my son's last week of school, there was a surprise performance for the parents featuring all the songs that the children had learned throughout the year. I had known that my son enjoyed this music time, but I had NO idea that he had actually learned these songs by heart until I saw him clearly singing along to (pretty much) every word! I myself speak French and Italian fairly well, as well as enough Finnish to manage, but I have never managed to learn Spanish - for some reason it never clicked with me like other languages have.

We are use to this artist from the Whistlefritz series (which my daughter loves). I chose this one because I want to get her moving. She "dances" the entire length of the CD and has not grown tired of it after one straight week of listening to it daily. The songs are beautiful, I wish the melody would last longer (like the beginning of "Bingo" is awesome, I wish there was more music before or after the lyrics about bingo).

They lyrics are easy to follow along, great CD!

Unlike some CD's, these songs are sung in an authentic Spanish accent. My child loves the upbeat tunes, and I love that he is learning proper Spanish.
