DVD Reviews of Let's Learn Spanish with Frank & Paco, Volume 1
DVD Review: it is helpful
Summary: 4 Stars
I don't agree with some of the reviews that says it does not get attention from kids older than 2 years old. My daughter watches it over and over and repeats the words. Because she can read in two languages by now, she reads the words and it helps. I bought it at a lower price at some famous toy store after I bought one expensive one (the Whistlefritz Spanish for beginners) from amazon. It is impossible for a toddler or a kid to learn Spanish from the previous one that I bough from amazon. It doesn't show the word, there is this little mouse and the narrator for example is looking for the mouse. She calls it and probably asks where he is, but even I do not understand or clearly hear what she says or what exactly she asks. I am a teacher but I am not teaching language. I was never good at learning foreign language either. It may be right that in order to learn a foreign language you must hear it and must not use your mother language. I get it because English is not my mother language and that's what some teachers used to teach English to me. However, I would still like to hear and see what the narrator is talking about. So, picturing what's going on or at least visualizing it helps to me. My daughter did not like the previous dvd at all. The fact is that someone is speaking in a language about which you have no idea and it is on DVD, not someone near you, so you never exactly know what is going on there. Think how boring it is.
She likes this one though. Actually, we all like it, and we sit down in front of the TV and watch it as a family. We have no idea about Spanish, but we have learned some basic and simple stuff already. I agree that the idea that two puppets teaching something bothered me when I was buying the DVD, because the puppet thing is old fashioned and may not be attractive for kids (if the puppet is not Elmo or Abby:)) I also agree that the DVD is not really fun or entertaining. That's because that's not what it aims. But in my opinion, it uses a better way of teaching for those who really know nothing about Spanish, at least for us. Well, you can never expect a kid to sit and enjoy and educating DVD alone for a long time whatever the topic is. You must enjoy it with her or him, too, so that you encourage her or him. That;s what we do and we like it. I will definitely buy the second chapter of this DVD.
