kids like it
i'm trying to teach my son french, and he likes this video. he'll sing the songs from it.

Disappointing!
As a French teacher and Mom, I was disappointed with this product. Outdated, boring... holds child's attention for about 5 min.

Yes for beginner
The graphic is not too good but the content is great to introduce French to the children

Not necessarily for children who already speak French at home
I previewed this in the hopes of showing this to my one year old when he was older, and I have to say I was a little disappointed. My son only hears French from his father, and English from me, and when we listen or expose him to media that's aimed at teaching him French, we prefer the entire presentation be in French. My husband speaks five languages and each time it was through complete immersion. This is designed for English speaking children to be introduced to a new language with their parents who may not speak French. I was thinking this was a French language educational program, like Sesame Street in French, but it's not. The pace is very slow, and the animation is dated. I can't see a child who is active or high strung sitting through it. It still has its merits, I was bored but I was able to review some vocabulary pronounciation and the slow pace is nice for non-french speaking families. I'm just not sure it merits $15-20 with shipping. My son came home during my preview and lost interest in five minutes, but with a house full of cats and Frere Jacques being one of his favorite songs, the first lession was rather rudimentary.

Cute & Educational
I was not sure what to expect, and when we received it, my 6 year old son, (who is very boysh and mature at the same time and just loves speaking different idioms), just could not stop enjoying it, watching and repeating the music and frases, he really enjoys it and even though is very basic, it is well spoken by natives and show a great mixture of cartoon with reallity. Surely a kid will not be able to speak the language after learning the basics of this movie though, it is a great and smooth introduction to the language.
