About This:
Hap Palmer canta en español doce de sus canciones más populares
para niños. Con su estilo distintivo logra usar la música, el
movimiento y la diversión para enseñar el vocabulario, las matemáticas,
y el lenguaje y desarrollar las habilidades motrices. Ha sido incluida una guía
educativa bilingüe, escrita en inglés y en español, que contiene
la letra de las canciones y también varias actividades.
Hap Palmer sings Spanish versions of 12 of his most popular songs for young
children using his trademark mix of music, movement and fun to build vocabulary,
teach math and language, and develop movement skills. A bilingual teaching guide
with lyrics and activities in Spanish and English is included.
This is a recording for both Spanish speaking children and English speaking children who want to learn Spanish. The songs address the whole child; mentally, physically, and socially, and will help children: * improve basic academic skills in math and language as they count, tell time, identify parts of the body, learn colors and build vocabulary. * develop a wide range of movement skills as they clap, stamp, bend, twist, stretch, crawl, walk, run, jump, hop, gallop, turn, wiggle, balance, throw and catch. * develop an appreciation of life and nature as they act out the growth of a tree and a baby, and sing of being thankful for friends, food, and home. The production features a chorus of native Spanish speaking children singing along with Hap. The recording presents twelve songs, first with a vocal version. Then the sequence repeats instrumentally with no voices. After children learn the words by hearing the vocal version, they can sing along with the instrumental version, hearing only the music. Children can also create and sing their own words with the instrumental version. A bilingual teaching guide with lyrics and activities in Spanish and English is included. |
Reviews
Reviewer: Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) -
Divirtamonos Aprendiendo con Hap Palmer (Let's Have Fun Learning With Hap Palmer) by Hap Palmer is an easy-to-follow 66 minute introduction and exploration of the Spanish language for English speaking children ages 4 to 10 (and the English language for Spanish speaking children within the same age bracket ) just beginning to learn, as well as those children wishing to retain their current knowledge of the language. With a wide understanding and coverage of youth Spanish/English, Divirtamonos Aprendiendo con Hap Palmer covers both fun and educational aspects of each language with a track set consisting of La arana pequenita (The Itsy Bitsy Spider), Creciendo (Growing), Que milagro (What a Miracle), Doy gracias (Things I'm Thankful For), Sammy/Soy feliz de ser como soy (Sammy/I'm Glad I'm Glad I'm Me), Veamos a los colores moverse (Colors in Motion), Un Reloj feliz (Jolly Clock), ?Como te llamas? (What is Your Name?), Pon las manos arriba (Put Your Hands Up in the Air), Cinco monitos (Five Little Monkeys), La bolsita de frijoles (The Beanbag), Saliendo a la ciudad (Stepping Out on the Town).

As a former preschool teacher, Hap Palmer CDs are the ones I used to turn to when I wanted to liven up my group time or just have music playing softly in the background on rainy school days. Hap has a soothing voice that always seemed to calm my classroom full of energetic three and four year olds. So I was eager to listen to his latest CD in Spanish, complete with activities that correspond with each song. The songs and activities help children to learn to identify parts of the body, numbers and counting, tell time, learn colors, and about plants and animals. "What a Miracle," is a call and response song that celebrates how special our bodies are. "Things I am Thankful for," is a soothing ballad that teaches gratitude for the earth, sea, and friends.
Since I am not bilingual, I asked a Spanish language teacher at my son's elementary school to help me review the CD. She loved it and said she would gladly use it as a way to teach the children, preschool through sixth grade common concepts in a fun, interactive manner.
It's amazing how quickly even someone like me, who is not Spanish speaking, can pick up vocabulary by listening to it in songs. Children are so much more adept at doing this than adults are. I trust everything Hap Palmer does to be age appropriate and full of learning opportunities for children. This CD was no different and proved to be a wonderful way to introduce children to the Spanish language, to reinforce concepts taught or to use with Spanish speaking children. - Carol Laliberte
