TCoppock Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 I was looking at these and was wondering if anyone on here uses them. My DS loves singing and I think this might be something he would enjoy. We bought Grammar Songs and he did not like them but he loves the Shurley English jingles. I was just wondering if anyone else on here used them and what they thought of them. Also has it helped you DC retain any history facts? My DS learned the 50 states song when he was in Pre-K and still to this day will sing it. I want something that will be both enjoyable and educational.

Hoggirl Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 "#1 George Washington, #2, John Adams, 3 was Thomas Jefferson, and #4 James Madison!" the singing sticks for us, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCoppock Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 Thanks I knew someone on here had to have used them. Now another question: What exactly is on the enhanced cd? Are they completely different from the memory song cds or do they just contain extra along with the songs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lakeside Posted February 29, 2008 Share Posted February 29, 2008 We've used the OT/Ancient Egypt history song and it has been helpful! I believe that the enhanced CD includes the Teacher's Manual on the CD, instead of getting an actual book. Hope that helps. :) Shannon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My three year old loves them, but I wish the songs weren't so high! I've been seriously considering giving the lyrics-which I like-to a musician friend of mine and asking him to compose a new tune: one that we can actually sing!!

Anne Marie Yes, Someone really needs to come up with an alternative! I think that the idea is great, but the implementation is poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
