Sing-A-Lingo Spanish Classes for Kids with Caregivers Enrolling Now!
These fun, musical, interactive classes, designed for children and their caregiver, teach practical Spanish words and phrases through catchy songs and activities. Classes will cover topics such as bath-time, food, and travelling – topics that help caregivers incorporate Spanish into their child’s every day routine. Classes are interactive and fun with ample opportunities to sing, speak, and get up and move. Sing-A-Lingo uses a natural teaching approach in which the teacher speaks almost exclusively Spanish and communicates through gestures, easy-to-understand visual aids, and music! Students will receive a CD of original songs as well as other educational materials to take home. No previous Spanish experience is required.

Teach Kids Language Using Songs–and Have Fun!
Recently, I heard from the fine folks over at REALLYGOODSTUFF.COM who cater to teachers (and if you’re raising bilingual kids, you’re a teacher!)
They asked me to write a short blog about using music to teach! At Sing-A-Lingo, we’ve focused on teaching Spanish and English through songs–but it works for ANYTHING! Enjoy!
Click to see the post. ***Scroll down to May 13 to see my blog*** The blog includes a fun link to the kids at PS22 singing their hearts out. It’ll bring an instant smile!
We gave out FREE SONGS at the TESOL Conference!

If you came by our booth, thanks! And so nice to meet you.

The crowd goes WILD!!!?#!!!
Our popular Spanish songs have been translated to English. Same head-bopping rhythms, same useful vocabulary, same humor, same easy repetition for learners acquiring language.
Kids and adults will like this CD equally. Great for use in the classroom, at home, in the car for family fun.
