Whether used to introduce kids to new languages or to expand word knowledge in their native tongue, this language-learning DVD from Rock 'N Learn is an effective and versatile vocabulary builder.

The content is focused on learning words associated with the outdoors - names of insects, animals, foods, activities, and more. As each word is spoken, both a subtitle and an image of the object being named are displayed onscreen.
