Fun stuff
I have my older child learning Latin, so I looked for something for my younger ones. My kids have all had fun, we have learned the songs from the book, but those are not on the DVDs- bummer. I have enjoyed the DVDs for the derivatives, and have been touched by some of the connections between words and their roots. My kids love Simeon and his adventures! The videos can be a little choppy on the "teaching" piece- I think that may be when there are differences in classical vs ecclesiastical pronunciations. They are kind of expensive for what they are, but, they enjoy watching and strengthening their word bank of Latin.
