Spanish Piggyback Songs [Spanish]

This is a very easy to use songbook for families and homeschoolers who like to sing throughout the day. It is best used as a simple, fun addition to other Spanish activites, rather than as your only source. It is especially appropriate for use with very young children because the songs are short and catchy and the vocabulary is at a very beginning level. My toddler likes to look at the simple black and white illustrations as we sing. He requests his favorites by remembering the picture that went with each song. This songbook fit in well with our Waldorf perspective because it follows the seasons throughout the year with a selection of songs for each season. I only wish there was music included in the back for each tune selected because we are unfamiliar with a few of them. Also, color illustrations would be a nice addition to make it less of a teaching manual and more readable for young children although my toddler son does seem to enjoy the black and white illustrations.

I found this book to be a nice resource. Even if I only practice and use afew songs from it, I know it has made a big difference with my Spanish speaking preschoolers. For me, the phonetic pronunications were indispensible.
