Despite American schools' penchant for introducing foreign language at the middle-school level, research continues to prove that the earlier a child is exposed to a second language, the more likely she/he is to become bilingual. Based upon this tenet, in addition to Music for Little People's strong commitment to multicultural edu-tainment for children, the label has issued Uni Verse of Song as the first in a series of bilingual recordings especially created for children from preschool through fourth-grade levels. Featuring acclaimed artist Maria del Rey, she is here joined by a group of children singing standard American tunes in both English and Spanish. Oftentimes, verses as in "She'll Be Comin' Round the Mountain," are sung in English and directly followed by a translation in Spanish, thus making the language come to life with both fun and content. --Paige La Grone

5.0 out of 5 stars Repetition Please, and Pleasing in Repetition, August 9, 2000

This review is from: Uni Verse of Song: Spanish (Audio CD)
As a parent of a 4 and 1/2 year old boy, I hear a lot of CDs over and over! Here, you won't mind, and you and your little ones will learn some Spanish along the way. Well blended w/Spanish and English and the music itself is very beautifully executed. Maria Del Rey's voice is lovely. Great fun CD to add the early years in classroom setting or at home. (Other languages are avail., but have not heard them yet). This CD is great, not grating!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great English/Spanish songs for all ages, January 10, 2000
a schaller (Hummelstown, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Uni Verse of Song: Spanish (Audio CD)
This is a fun way to learn either English or Spanish. Each song alternates back and forth between English and Spanish, with a review of simple Spanish words at the end. Many songs are the ones my daughter (Kindergarten) already knows (like Old McDonald), so it makes learning foreign words easier. Plus fun musical arrangements (like one with Pirates)! We look forward to more music from Maria Del Rey! We are buying a second copy to donate to my daughter's classroom.

This review is from: Uni Verse of Song: Spanish (Audio CD)
My son is 4yrs old and goes to Spanish class once a week. He really enjoys this music and so does my 2yr old who is just learning to speak english. Never too young to start the awareness of another language. We play it on the way to school. It sings one verse in English and then in Spanish, unlike some cd's that seem to be for kids who only speak Spanish. Great starter music.
