The Muzzy Foreign Language Learning System is a wonderful product from the British Broadcasting System (BBC). The program has been around for more than 20 years and involves a series of DVDs or VHS tapes, audio CDs or cassette tapes and workbooks to help your child learn a foreign language. From French to German to Japanese to Spanish and more, your child can learn a foreign language by watching the adventures of Muzzy, an alien who lands in the Kingdom of Gondoland. The Muzzy Foreign Language Learning System shows a series of cartoons in both English and the language you wish your child to learn; repetition helps to foster learning.
