Ever heard of Twin Sisters Productions? I had not but there are MANY offerings of “learning how to” sing alongs by this outfit.
To be clear, I listened to “German” not “Spanish” but GR does not list “German” so I improvised...
It was not very good. The songs are not catchy or memorable. I suppose if a child listened to it a million times (like children oft do) they would remember the 80 or so words but as an adult, it is musically painful. I can speak German, enough anyway, so why did I bother? Because...I always learn something, maybe one word, when I read or listen to kid stuff.
For example, I thought carrots was Karotten. Nope, the plural of carrot is Möhren.
The subjects covered in this 35 minutes of audio torture are:
The Alphabet
Numbers to 20
Colors
Days of the Week
Animals - weird animals at that: giraffe, elephant, snake, hippo, etc...no domesticated animals like dogs or cats or rabbits.
Hello Song
Let’s Eat! (carrots among other things....like peas, ew)
My Family
Weather

Brief audio with English & Spanish blended together in a song format. The songs are designed for kids. The songs are well produced and enjoyable for a couple listens. Adults will struggle to enjoy this after the 2nd repetition.
