Welcome
to the fun world
of ABC MELODY!
SING & LEARN ARABIC is a unique collection of 10 original songs
that introduce children to the Arabic language & culture through music
and pictures. It's as easy as ABC:
A Look at the pictures,
B Listen to the songs,
C Sing along in Arabic and dance !
Each song is presented with the lyrics in Arabic, transcriptions in
Romanised characters and with an illustrated vocabulary list so that
children can easily identify the theme of the song and learn elements
of the language straight away. English translations of the songs are
included at the end of the booklet.
Music styles are varied and introduce children to rhythm and movement.
Instrumental versions are included on the CD for fun karaoke sessions at
home or in the car. And parents can learn too!
Have fun!
