My daughter started watching Speekee program on July 25th.
Up until now she LOVES it and learned couple dozens of Spanish words from there. This is not a program that will teach your child to read Spanish, but to Speak Spanish!
I just love how all the phrases taught have "Gracias" and "Por favor" the polite way to speak.
I also love that there is an option to watch streaming videos online.
IF you are interested in teaching your child Spanish, give this program a try.
I am in no way affiliated with this company, I just a very satisfied customer
I read waterdreamer's review in April, but I did not understood the concept (It said Speekee TV, and I thought it is Spanish TV chanel )
Couple days ago, after reading Speekee's post I visited his website and right away signed up for free trial of Speekee ( the groundbreaking language learning system for young children).
