Písničky na CD
Písničky, básničky a říkanky, které se jako děti naučíme, si mnohdy pamatujeme po celý život. Jednoduché melodie spolu s neustálým opakováním nám pomáhají lépe si je vštípit do paměti.  Na stejném principu jsou založeny i anglické písničky Happy Hoppy, které pomáhají dětem k tomu, aby si snadno zapamatovaly základní slovní zásobu a komunikační fráze. Happy Hoppy zároveň naplňuje přirozenou potřebu dětí spojit jazykový projev s pohybem. Audio nahrávky nazpíváné rodilým Angličanem zaručí dětem poslech té správné výslovnosti.
