Rating: - Good for fluency, hard for grown-ups!
I bought this CD/book when my daughter was 3. I kept the CD in the car and within 4 or 5 playings was astounded to hear a little voice singing along in the back seat! The words weren't completely articulated as she couldn't understand them, but all the sounds were there. I was so proud...

The songs leave a lot to be desired from an adult point of view - but my daughter loves them, especially Le Chat Angora, Rock n'Roll Frere Jacques and Comment Ca-va?

Rating: - Not as good as it could have been
I bought this for my 2 year old twins as I want them to become familiar with listening to another language. One of them has already picked up C'est L'Halloween which is not bad considering this is aimed at older children.

Other than Frere Jacque, Ma mere m'envoie t-au marche and Je suis un artiste, I find most of the tunes uninspiring and dull. I can speak a little French and I find it difficult to comprehend what is actually being sung.

I will keep playing it to my boys ... Read More

Rating: - A Primary French Teacher
Other than the first track, a Rock and Roll version of Frère Jacques which is brilliant, the songs are pretty dull and clearly unsuitable for the 3-6 year old audience the book claims to target. The language is too difficult for this age group and my classes were not impressed at all. The book has the lyrics, music and chords so children can play the music and the CD is sung by children (always more appealing than adults).
There are plenty of other more suitable cds/books for this age group on ... Read More
