Customer Reviews

Fun for kids...even if they do not know any Russian...

Our family just returned from an extended stay in Russia, and my 11-year learned bits and pieces of the language. This tape doesn't really teach her any new language, but she loves to hear familiar songs sung in Russian. We feel that it is unlikely that Russian children sing "Wheels on the bus," but she likes listening to it in Russian anyway. Even children who do not already know any Russian will recognize some of the songs on the tape.

To help you understand you kids!

My husband is Russian and my kids understand and speak Russian, This tape and book helped me learn to pick out words when I hear them in a conversation. Now my in-laws have conversations and I answer them in English. Also my daughter loves singing the songs.

Russian for the younger set

I thought this was a very cute introduction to Russian. The tape is a great idea because you can tell if you are pronouncing words and phrases correctly. It could have been improved by using traditional Russian songs instead of translated American songs. Also--I could live without the guy oversinging the songs in English. All in all, a very good way to support your child's interest in Russian language.
