It has animated videos that illustrates the lyrics of traditional French nursery rhymes, such as Frère Jacques . The DVDs are designed for language stimulation and to introduce sounds, words, and sentences to babies.

We just got our copy yesterday. All three of my crhdlien love to watch it (5,3 and 2). My non-verbal 24 mth old laughs and giggles through the whole DVD and most importantly has attempted some of the sounds. We are really impressed with it. In fact, as far as encouraging late talkers, we would rate this one up there with The Miracle of Mozart Numbers and Shapes . The Miracle of Mozart takes a different approach by using kid’s voices to entice crhdlien to repeat what they hear. This DVD uses Speech Therapists and is really usefull in motivating our non-verbal toddler. It will also show you how to promote language. I can see why the parent of a typical child with normal speech development might not be impressed with this product- but if you are a parent looking for something to help promote language, this is a great choice. Good Luck.
