| Disappointed | 2009-01-05 | 1 / 5 |
| | I had high expectations after reading the description of this video. Not only was the content too short(not enough value for the money I paid),but the quizzes throughout did not seem necessary (I thought). In addition,there was a young boy in the video who had the worst pronunciation (ie. "verde"). It was pretty obvious that not all the characters are fluent speakers. That dog seemed strange and unnecessary to the story. I think if the story was told in Italian only (with subtitles) it would be a more effective tool for teaching young children the Italian language. |
| Good course, but oh soooo short! | 2008-12-30 | 3 / 5 |
| | This is a good, fun, Italian course for kids - even if it only focuses on common phrases and vocabulary and doesn't address grammar, etc. The main problem is that it is extremely short - about 45 minutes. I can't imagine my 5-year-old daughter watching this more than a couple of times (she already knows most, if not all, of the material, which is very basic beginner level). That translates to a rather expensive and abbreviated language learning system. Even if one chooses to shell out the cash for volume II, you then come to a dead end in this study course (i.e., there don't seem to be any subsequent volumes). Useful, perhaps, if you just want some initial exposure. If your aim is fluency, however, this is certainly not the way to go. Instead, think about one of the full learning systems (we use Rosetta Stone). On the other hand, if your kid is just starting out, and you can afford it, you might use this DVD to supplement some other (better) language study course. |
| Good basic Italian lesson | 2008-11-16 | 4 / 5 |
| | My children are 4 years old and are learning Italian. If the dvd were longer, I would have given it more stars. I was trying to rate it with 3 stars, but the system wouldn't let me change from 4 to 3 stars. 3 stars because it is so short. Still, it is a good, basic dvd for learning Italian. The kids like it, so they are willing to watch it regularly. There are some interactive games to help teach the words, the actors speak pretty clearly, and the animated dog is fun for the kids. With a book, you could teach the same words on your own, even if you don't speak Italian, because the dvd does not deal with an abundance of words/phrases. But, if you want a little break from teaching, this dvd works well and is not overly expensive. |
| great for learning italian | 2008-04-12 | 5 / 5 |
| | this dvd is great. my 3 kids love watching it and actually ask to put it on instead of there other shows. i have a 4 1/2, 3 and 2 year old. the songs keep them interested the vibrant colors and mommo the dog is great. my son (2) already has been repeating the colors and body parts in italian. and my oldest daughter(4 1/2) is really saying the phrases and sentences that they teach. It really is a great learning tool for young children. |
| The Learning tree italian for kids is leaps and bounds ahead of the few learning dvds out there for italian. It is so much better than standard deviants. The cadence, pronunciation and accent are all very good. The only con is it leaves you wanting more. Hopefully the learning tree will produce more italian language dvds. It could also use more indept review of lessons, but still the best product currently in the market. Great for adults too.
