LANGUAGE LEARNING IGNITES A SOUL’S LIFE-LONG JOURNEY TO BUILD BRIDGES OF COMMUNICATION ACROSS CULTURES.
HABLA BLAH BLAH IS AN INFORMAL LANGUAGE LEARNING PROGRAM FOR KIDS VIA ORIGINAL MUSIC IN ENGLISH, SPANISH AND FRENCH.
It can be used in the home or as a tool to augment curriculum in schools.
The theory behind this music is that it is simple and easy, and we capitalize on the concept of the earworm! Beginning language learners first focus on the refrain. Sing-a-long! Learning a new language requires active participation (not passive) and as comfort levels increase, so does a learner's ability to replicate the words and phrases in each song. Eventually a learner can sing the song in its entirety and pick apart 'chunks' to create new phrases with new meaning.

Our native sung, rock star composed, award-winning songs in English, Spanish, and French are designed to teach relevant vocabulary and common phrases that can be applied to daily speech. It’s a modular system, so if you don’t know a lick of your target language, listen to the album in your mother tongue first. Then, switch to the target.
Your brain will begin decoding the sounds immediately. Sing-a-long, and before you know it, you’ll have a few words and phrases under your belt in that new second language. Warning: these songs were designed for young kids, so no apologies if they get stuck in your head - you’ve been warned!
