Little Pim Review

Hi Neighbors,

Here's a great product for teaching young children Foreign Languages. Little Pim is recommended for children ages 0-6years old. This is a DVD series and they have, Spanish, French, Chinese Hebrew, Italian, Japanese, English, Arabic, German and Russian available. Each of the languages have complete sets you may buy, or you can purchase them individually. They cover, 1. Eating and Drinking, 2. Wake Up Smiling (brushing teeth, dressing, etc.), 3. Playtime, 4. In my Home, 5. Happy, Sad,and Silly, and 6. I Can Count.

Little Pim also provides video downloads that you may purchase, parent guides, coloring pages to download, and some games. You can also push a small plush Little Pim. Little Pim has won 10 Consumer Awards. Little Pim has a blog, and may also be found on Twitter and Facebook.

We were given the Spanish I Can Count. The program had Little Pim, a cute Panda Bear, Bob a Bobcat , and Lola and Elephant. My daughter really enjoyed them. They counted dogs, cats, toys, food items, etc. so really they are learning other words too, not just numbers. This is a program that really would help a young child with a foreign language. This is a product worth sharing At the Fence.

History of Little Pim:

"Little Pim was created in 2006 by Julia Pimsleur Levine, a mom who grew up bilingual and was looking for fun ways to introduce her young son to the French language. When she discovered there were no high quality videos/DVDs for teaching toddlers a foreign language, she decided to create them herself— something for which she was uniquely qualified as a filmmaker, language teacher, and mother. Pimsleur Levine was inspired in part by having grown up in the language teaching business. Her father, Dr. Paul Pimsleur, created one of the most popular and acclaimed audio teaching language methods for adults.

Pimsleur Levine created a series that delights kids as much as any purely entertainment show, and treats play and learning as seamless activities. The Little Pim DVDs and products all make language learning fun and easy for babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and their monolingual or bilingual parents.

Little Pim’s unique Entertainment Immersion Method leads with distinctive fun and high quality, and provides total immersion in the language. The method uses proven repetition techniques that help children retain the new vocabulary.

Little Pim is the most comprehensive series available today for introducing a foreign language to young children between the ages of zero and five. The series has won ten awards, including iParenting, Mom’s Best, Creative Child and Mr. Dad."


You can purchase Little Pim right through their website. The Deluxe Set that includes 3 of the DVDs, the plush Little Pim, the little Pim Spanish Music CD, Little Pim Word and Phrase Cards, all in a Little Pim Tote Bag. ($89.95) The individual DVDs run $17.95. Take a look around, see if there is something you like.

Baby First TV 'I Can Sign" First Words

Hey Neighbors! Here is a really neat gift idea for someone with a young child.  Here we have I Can Sign (First Words) from Baby First  TV.  Now, I am just going to share right here that we have friends who have taught two of their children to sign at a very young age.  And it works!  Their children could sign before they could talk. The Dvd will teach your child many useful words that will be used in day to day life.  Words like: eat, water, milk, cookie, ear, feet hands, kiss, sleep, book, mother, father, and many other words.  Each word is taught in a short video clip where they will see pictures of the word/item and people signing.  There is also a little character at the bottom corner of the video signing along.  The Dvd can be done on English or Spanish.  Also included on the Dvd are printable coloring pages that you can print off by inserting the Dvd into your computer.  Inside the cover of the Dvd case is a little booklet that covers some of the words you and your child

What To Do About Those Fuzzy Uninvited Guests In The Home

When we talk about pests in the home, the most common that we tend to deal with are the creepy-crawlies that find their way in. Ants, termites, and spiders, for instance. Occasionally though, you have a real chance of getting a much bigger, fuzzier unwanted guest in the home. What do you do about the fact your home is at risk of becoming a wildlife sanctuary for some truly unhealthy and even dangerous beasts? Picture by Alexas_Fotos Know the signs It doesn’t matter if you’re in a suburban home, a country cottage, or a fourth-floor apartment. Some animals can find their way just about anywhere. It’s worth knowing the signs of pest infestation so you can confirm it and act on it immediately. Spotting droppings, keeping an ear out for scratching, and looking for signs of nesting like shredded paper, scrunched leaves, and grass clippings around the home without explanation can help you start fighting back.
