Ask HN: Personal recommendations for children

1 point

9 years ago

Is anyone willing to share the resources they strongly recommend after use in their childhood and/or with their own children? The recent discussion of children's author Sandra Boynton inspired this attempt to broaden the discussion to any similarly excellent tools. I am most specifically interested in recommendations related to learning foreign languages.

I have personally used and strongly recommend:

· Baby Signing Time http://store.signingtime.com/baby-signing-time DVD

· The Best of the Laurie Berkner Band https://amzn.com/dp/B003SJVM5M as a music CD for the car.

· Lola's Alphabet Train https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/lolas-alphabet-train-free-learn-to-read/id428422381?mt=8

· KidsTV123 https://www.youtube.com/user/KidsTV123

· Word Party https://www.netflix.com/title/80063705

Based on a strong personal recommendation of a relative, I am looking forward to soon using:

· Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons https://amzn.com/dp/0671631985
