Finding the mischievous mouse Fritzi is just part of the fun in this lively Spanish language learning program. Welcome to Fritzi's house, where up or down, inside or out, there is lots to learn and plenty to do. Explore every area of Fritzi’s house, from el dormitorio (the bedroom) and el baño (the bathroom) to la sala (the living room) and la cocina (the kitchen). An engaging interactive format teaches children greetings, parts of the house, positional words, food, daily activities, numbers, and more. But that's not all! Vamos a cantar y bailar! (Let’s sing and dance!) This DVD will have children on their feet dancing along to upbeat rhythms. Adentro y Afuera is an engaging blend of colorful backgrounds, charming animation and live-action that kids will want to revisit again and again. The DVD teaches Spanish using the immersion teaching method recommended by language acquisition experts. (For more about immersion, please watch the Language Immersion video on the Whistlefritz website.) The DVD includes an easy-to-use translation guide for parents and teachers. Designed for ages 2-7, Adentro y Afuera is fun for all ages! Review ------ If you are looking for a great video to begin the introductory process to the Spanish language, look no further than this DVD. Parents reported that the methods used, including zero translation and total immersion worked wonders, despite the fact that many were skeptical at first. Kids would watch over and over, enjoying Jorge the musician responsible for the Whistlefritz music, and Fritzi the Mouse. It is the repetition that finally began to pay dividends as children would recognize, then understand and then repeat what they learned. Parents told us they were learning too! --The National Parenting Center This educational DVD is very colorful and a delightful way to teach Spanish to your young children. Using everyday conversation is how we learn any language and this is the way this DVD teaches your youngsters Spanish. There are no translated subtitles to follow, just a wonderful and entertaining show that the children will be in awe of as they watch and learn. Dove awards their Family-Approved Seal for all ages to Spanish for Beginners: Adentro y Afuera (Inside and Out). --The Dove Foundation Viewers young and old were captivated from the moment the bright-eyed, engaging and charming host, Maria, appeared on screen. Maria spends her time searching around her house for her pet mouse Fritzi. Throughout this delightful game of hide and seek, viewers hear conversational Spanish introduced by Maria, who has a special talent for speaking clearly and pronouncing words with exactness. The DVD skillfully freshens up tried and true tools such as live action with puppets, animation, children and music to teach young viewers household words in Spanish. --Parents' Choice Foundation
