Hands on Spanish – 20 songs that teach Spanish to children » Spanish Playground

Hands on Spanish – 20 songs that teach Spanish to children » Spanish Playground | Learn Spanish | Scoop.it

Hands on Spanish has 20 songs and comes with the Spanish lyrics and an English translation of all the tracks. The lyrics and the translations are printed in alternating colors so that they are easy to read. The lively songs teach basic vocabulary and concepts like animals, numbers, colors, the alphabet, professions and days of the week. All of the songs are short, so that even little children do not get bored and can memorize them easily. The singers are native Spanish speakers with beautiful voices. Also, I really appreciate that the vocals are always easy to hear, with instruments contributing to the music but never interfering with the clarity of the words.
