This DVD makes it easy for children to learn key vocabulary words in six different languages. The main menu allows viewers to choose either Spanish, French, Mandarin Chinese, Italian, German, or English and then takes them directly into a colorful, fun-filled animated video. Kids learn colors, numbers, and the names of many common household objects, including articles of clothing, toys, furniture, and more. The content is very clear and easy to follow. Each word is spoken and appears onscreen (subtitles can also be turned off) in the language being learned while the object itself is displayed and highlighted. This takes place amidst a cast of animated characters and ongoing action. The playful visuals enhance learning by keeping children entertained and engaged throughout. This approach is also quite effective in helping children practice vocabulary and counting in their first language.
