First of all a grande gracias to all of the Parent Bloggers and Kristen and Julie for running such a tremendously valuable site - both for parents and manufacturers, they allow us to see things for what they really are! The feedback has been so appreciated - both the constructive as well as the super positive! Here are a few points we want to make sure you are aware of: 1) The lyrics are all on our web site (the inside of each CD tells you to hop on there) because we want parents and teachers to have access to all of the other free resources on our site www.bocabeth.com(circle time activities that go hand in hand with each song, more than 60 bilingual language cards free for the downloading, bilingual coloring pages and so much more!) 2) Thanks to the reinforcement from Parent Bloggers blogs we will be shooting a new bonus feature/tail end for our "I Like Animals" DVD. We filmed that segment at an indooor play facility and used cameras and mics not well suited for that live setting. We thank all of you for the 'kick in the rear' to get that new segment filmed. It is going to ROCK!!!! 3) Our music CDs were loved by most of the Parent Bloggers (and by 99% of the children which is who we are trying to reach!) - but I have to answer to two bloggers that compared our studio production to 'something my friend does out of his bedroom' or 'my former college roommate did better production out of our dorm.' I look to the thousands upon thousands of Boca Beth CDs sold - many repeat customers online - and I know that most testimonials speak totally the opposite. I have not even let our music producer/arranger read those two comments - as we strive for clarity in the enunciation for language learning as well as the child-friendly arrangements made with a slight infusion of Latin American/Mexican/Cuban influence at times in the beats. We spend countless hours of passion, energy and money to allow those analogies to pass by without comment. Hear for yourself - all of our CDs can be sampled prior to purchasing on our web site of www.bocabeth.com. Gracias/Thank you - and Happy Educating! ¡Sea feliz educando!
