Experience Mexico's rich cultural heritage and traditions with this unique collection of 8 children's songs that have been passed down for many generations in Mexican households, schools and communities.

Learning cultural songs begins at an early age for children in Mexico because of music's direct connection to their heritage.

Promote cross-cultural education and reinforcing language skills while focusing on the principal objective of having fun learning and singing these cultural songs. The performance/accompaniment recording also includes separate pronunciation guide tracks for each song. For budget-saving value, the Classroom Kit offers a Teacher's book and P/A CD.
