Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Mostly helpfull but the lady singer is anoying
I'm teaching my kids Russian and I was hoping that this CD would provide us with educational time while we drive between schools and activities. For the most part it is a good CD. The best part is the kids dialogue where they speak slowly and clearly. The worst part is the lady singing in a very high pitched voice. Her voice is so high pitched that I can barely make out what she is saying. The man singing is good. In general, I like the CD and the material it covers and teaches.



Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Not exactly what I expected
The songs are in russian and english, but 2 different singers. The russian singer is more opera style and not child centered. There is a russian dialog, but it is never translated in english except in the book. It is difficult to follow along in the book.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Mostly American songs, with a lot of English, not Russian
My husband, who is Russian, reports that the songs on this are not traditional Russian, to his knowledge, and don't even sound like they might be Russian songs. Many of them are obviously American -- "America the Beautiful" -- and there is a lot of English singing taking up the tape, rather then repeating the Russian verse two or three more times. The Russian itself is well spoken, but for learning traditional Russian children's songs, this is not a good tape.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - A must for adopted children
As an adoptive parent and the founder of Building Blocks Adoption Service, Inc. I highly recommend this tape for your adopted child. We adopted our daughter from Russia and she is so into learning her culture and very proud to be able to sing Russian songs. I highly recommend enhancing your child's culture by buying this tape.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fun Russian Songs
This book & tape uses traditional Russian songs, in addition to songs my daughter all ready knew in English, which she now knows in Russian as well! I was skeptical at first, but now I think it's a great teaching method.
