“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 😀”

“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”

“My pre-school aged kids absolutely love Basho and Friends! They listen to both the English and Spanish CD on repeat in the car, and always request to watch videos and songs on his YouTube channel. I am amazed at how much foreign language they have picked up. They are so inquisitive at this age, it’s the perfect time to expose them to other languages. The songs are so catchy and fun, we sing them constantly in our “Casa Loca”!”

“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.”

“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. ”
