I would like to share my experience in teaching English to my 3 years old son through songs. We listen to many songs in English and other languages and I even write my own songs to sing with him. He loves singing and sings in English, Spanish and Italian(!!!) all day long (his native language is Russian). I personally believe that singing is the best method of teaching young children, so I even write my own songs with a catchy melody to sing with my child. We had recorded his singing and my husband helped us draw characters based on my song and create a cartoon for Youtube. You can watch the cartoon below (my son sings the last refrain):

That’s really great - thanks for sharing! Was just wondering - you said your little one sings songs in Spanish, do you have any songs in Spanish? I’d love some cartoon videos of Spanish songs to show my little girl!
I heard that song and that is amazing. Yes, singing is the best way to teach children and this method through children mind’s easily develop. Your cartoon song video is helpful to every parent, who teach our child english and spanish languages.
