The CD, Fun with French, contains an hour of songs and chat, presented in a cheerful and engaging style for little linguists. Some of the songs are old favourites like “Fr re Jacques” and “Au clair de la lune”, while others are fresh takes on topics like numbers, days of the week and the weather. All are sung in both English and French. The music stays discreetly in the background for conversational episodes in which on parle francais about family, food and shopping. Fun with French (product code EL 105152) costs pound;5 from Early Learning Centre Stores.
