Book Reviews of Play and Learn French (Book + Audio CD) (Play and Learn Language)
Book Review: Very good!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is another (hop, skip, learn is another) great language product by Ana Lomba.
The book has all the texts, and is organized by theme. It's very complete, but simple, with repetitions. The translations (for parents who don't speak French) are in the book, not the CD, another plus, as it allows full immersion.
A few pictures accompany key words for each subject.
It's a nice change from too many products that are marketed to parents (ie with immediate translations!). The French speaker is native (another fairly rare treat in language products for kids in the US!) and there are no clumsy translations.
Just a word of caution: The adult will need to help the child with words they don't know, stop the CD and replay the session etc. It's clearly meant as a (excellent) support for an adult teaching a child.
Book Review: Great as an addition to any curriculum
Summary: 5 Stars
I am bilingual (Spanish and English) and wanted to add in French with my own children. Since I just partnered in working on Flip Flop French: Ages 3-5: Level 1, I've been using that of course, and I so enjoyed using Ana Lomba's Play and Learn Spanish for my own students and classes, I got it in French.
I haven't been disappointed! After the children (three of them, ages 5 down to 2 years) completed lesson three, they were able to pick up quite a bit of this book and the interesting conversations that go along with the pictures in the book (it's full color!) My children really enjoy coloring and drawing, so after we do the Flip Flop French activity for the day, this is a great supplement and change for them. It's a little advanced for them without the other more simple lessons, but I think they'll continue to grow into it!
All in all, I love it!
Book Review: Solid resource for useful phrases in French
Summary: 5 Stars
I learned to speak French as an adult (and am still learning).
As a result, I have had very little exposure to 'children's French' - how to speak to a child and use phrases appropriate for them.
This is a fantastically reliable source for just that, and it is enjoyable to expand my own vocabulary along with my children's.
Book Review: Learn French with a childs' book
Summary: 5 Stars
Highly recommended for any adult who is trying to learn basic French. A great compliment to Pimsleur and Michel Thomas.Book Review: Fantastic to learn to talk to your child in French
Summary: 5 Stars
As someone who had some very rusty high school French I have found this book and 60 minute CD invaluable in teaching my 1 year old son to understand and speak French. He even enjoys listening to the CD in the car while Mummy learns French as he recognises phrases and songs that we have begun to use. The book and CD show you how to conduct everyday conversations with your child in many situations such as getting dressed, eating, cleaning up, bath time, going to the park and playing games. In addition to the vocabulary there are lots of easy songs that you can learn and sing during those activities.
