A trip to the farm, with some unexpected guests. Spanish immersion introducing children to the Spanish language through the use of skits, puppets, songs and play. | |

Very enjoyable and engaging to watch. Makes learning a language fun and easy. The playful associations of words, repetition in different scenarios, from animation to live action is natural and moves along with style and ease. Music, play and fun puppets add to the mix in an imaginative way that will capture children and adults alike. The flow of the language coupled with the visuals is very impressive and engaging - without any English translation at all. |

Enjoyed this. Liked the puppets, teacher and the kids on-screen but not all were engaged in the Spanish language element. The younger ones enthusiastically called out, "cow," "moo," "horsier," but didn't catch on to the Spanish words for the same. For children who already speak Spanish or are being raised in a bilingual household, it would be a slam dunk. Those kids loved it, thought it was funny and knew the names of the animals in Spanish already. They tried to sing along and asked to see it again. |
