Want your kids to speak Spanish?

Parents are overburdened with the demands of teaching our kids while also keeping everyone happy and sane. And kids are sick of lessons that are boring and out of touch. Language learning is so cool, but the lessons just haven't been. . . until now. Engaging music, videos, activities, and fresh beats that will light up your kids and your life!

Testimonials

“Dear Basho! We finished your whole video curriculum! Thank you, thank you so much for making your series free to our family during this time. My girls loved it. This was their first time ever studying a language and you did a fabulous job introducing it. I can't say thank you enough. They are so excited about everything they learned and want to continue learning. What should we do next? We consider you our Spanish teacher 😀”

“BASHO & FRIENDS is so awesome and has helped my toddler (and me too lol) learn so much Spanish. My 2yo knows how to say the alphabet in Spanish and even count to 10. He loves the videos too. So educational and a favorite in our home!”

Homeschool mom

“Our whole family enjoys listening to BASHO & FRIENDS. It’s something we can do together and I catch my son reciting lyrics all the time. He’s only 2 years old but every time one of Basho’s songs comes on, he proclaims “Basho!” like we’re on an episode of the game show “Name That Tune.” We can all sing along together and it’s refreshing to find some kids tunes that are educational AND adults can actually enjoy”

“I studied Spanish in school but never really learned it. When my daughter was born, I knew I didn't want her to be monolingual like me! She's 18 months old and we've both been listening to Basho & Friends. I already feel like I know more than I did after five semesters of college Spanish.”

“At just two years old the twins discovered BASHO & FRIENDS on YouTube while searching Spanish abcs. In a few weeks time, those catchy tunes had these kids singing their Spanish abcs, numbers and colors. Now at three years old they know some greetings and shapes in Spanish too.”

“I love Basho's videos because they are educational, fun, catchy, upbeat, and positive. The students always love listening to the songs because they're able to learn all the important basics of the Spanish language. They're always a fun addition to every lesson and it gets the kids up and moving which is super important in middle school”

About Basho

We all want our kids to thrive, but modern, digital life doesn't always make that easy. Between cringy YouTube videos and online games, we are in a battle for their minds. I know how it is. I have three kids of my own and I struggle with screen time taking over the mental space and emotions in my home as well. It’s hard to instill strong values and help them develop when they’re lost in someone else's antics or video game. That’s why I created BASHO & FRIENDS -- family-friendly, hip hop inspired music videos and resources that just happen to teach new languages. Rooted in my bilingual teaching experience, I have been serving teachers, schools, and families with fun, learning videos that have amassed almost 100,000 subscribers and 40 million YouTube views worldwide. My music is also a standard in homes and schools around the world - ask your smart speaker! I'm honored and grateful to be working with all of you parents, teachers, caregivers and kids.
