What Parents Need to Know

About Fiesta Songs!

Parents need to know that language lessons don't get much better than this. Each track begins with narration in Spanish and English, and then every song is sung in both Spanish and English. Equally important are the musical (and cultural) lessons inherent in every track. Other lessons include numbers (ascending and descending), dynamics (loud and soft), and expressing oneself.

Families Can Talk About
