It really works! Your child will
build a solid foreign language foundation using the successful immersion approach
preferred by educators. Each language is hosted by a fun cartoon "friend" and his or her playful pet who use only the language being taught. Your child simply points and clicks.
With KidSpeak, your child will automatically learn correct pronunciation, alphabet and word recognition, simple sentence structure, plural and singular forms, numbers, simple addition and subtraction, how to tell time, and much more.
The Sooner A Child Starts Learning A New Language The Better. Here's Why:
It's a fact. Researchers have proven that children more easily and naturally
acquire a second language when they're young. After that, it gets increasingly
difficult. Plus, studies show that children who have the benefit of a second language develop stronger problem–solving and analytical skills—a benefit for a lifetime.
Here's What Can You Do
As a parent, if you want your child to take advantage
of the language-learning "window of opportunity", you must take an active role.
There is no better tool than your computer and KidSpeak to start your child on a
second language. With KidSpeak,
your child can interact with authentic foreign language sounds, words and
phrases, games, puzzles, and songs. If you can place a disc in your
computer's CD-ROM drive, that's all you need to know to get your child
off and running in another language.
