NOTE FROM REACH AND TEACH: This CD was one of the favorites at a recent school
conference. Many of the parents and teachers were already very familiar with
Putumayo's music and were excited to add this title to their mix. The other
really big hit at the conference was the Latin
Playground Activity Kit. With so many kids learning Spanish, the Latin Playground's
activities and songs were a great way to take a break from drilling and have
some fun learning with music.
