My children have been introduced to the Spanish language already (their dad speaks a little because he spent some time in Guatemala and, of course, Dora the Explorer), but when the opportunity came to review these CD's I jumped at the chance. They love language and they love music. What a great combination! And we are homeschoolers!
The first time I played them, my toddler was dancing and bouncing right along with the music. He got his older sister into it right away too. So, the music is a hit! Catchy and dance-worthy. The 
comment I heard about the words, was that it was too fast. K (7yo) likes to catch the words and use them. Keep in mind, this was during the first time we'd ever heard this media. She's quick to judge. That night they requested that the CD's be played on their stereo in their room while they were falling asleep.
Some other notes: environmentally friendly packaging. tasteful advertising on the cases. winner of some prestigious parent awards. English and Spanish lyrics included and also found on the website.
Overall, Boca Beth has done an incredible job with these great resources. Check out her other products - including one that teaches sign along with the Spanish! Seriously looking at that one as another great teaching resource!!!
