Did you know that studies show that from birth to age six, the human brain is optimally equipped for learning and producing language (s)?
And did you know, studies show that learning a second language helps kids academically?
- Learning a foreign language improves memory and analytic abilities and strengthens problem solving skills.
- Bilinguals, especially those that have learned a second language before the age of 6, demonstrate superior reading and writing skills.
Little Pim makes learning a foreign language easy and accessible to all kids – at the age they learn language best (0-6 years).
Also, Little Pim gives your child access to ALL of their language programs – Spanish, French, English, Mandarin Chinese, Italian, German, Japanese, Russian, Korean, Portuguese, Arabic, and Hebrew. WOW!
Little Pim not only teaches a young child a new vocabulary, but the Little Pim programs help children acquire a near-native accent. Wow!
And you as the parent, don’t even need to know the language your child is learning. Wow again!
Don’t speak Spanish…or French? No problem! Your child can. 🙂
FYI – some basics regarding language acquisition
Babies hear their mothers’ voices before birth. Because of this, newborns already know the rhythm of their native language.
Also, infants are able to detect different sounds and hear the nuances in foreign languages with clarity and precision. Infants actually perceive these differences better than adults.
Young children’s ways of assimilating language are different from adults too, especially in pronunciation. But as children become “tuned” to their native language, they gradually lose the ability to tell the subtle sounds in foreign languages apart. When people are introduced to foreign sounds later in life, they have much more difficulty hearing the differences, thus making it that much harder to imitate these sounds.
So, you can see why learning languages early, is important.

Isn’t he darling? I have to admit, I love the panda. Also, Little Pim’s voice mirrors “motherese” and the videos use sharp and colorful images of objects and actions. This allows young viewers to connect the sounds they hear with actions and objects in real life. So, he’s darling and exceptionally educational. 🙂
