Features: "New Oriental English Nursery Rhymes" is a set of products highly suitable for children to learn. It has the following advantages: First, it selects nearly 80 children's songs widely circulated in English-speaking countries. The melodies are beautiful and melodious, yet relatively simple, making them perfect for children to sing. Most mothers will find that their children learn songs quickly, even humming along after listening to an advertisement song a few times. In fact, the songs are very infectious for children. Learning English through English nursery rhymes will not make children feel that learning English is dull, thus avoiding rejection of learning. It allows children to subconsciously remember many English words and learn some cultural knowledge of the English-speaking countries mentioned in the songs. Second, this collection of nursery rhymes includes classic songs one by one, some of which are also familiar to Chinese children, such as: "London Bridge," "The Alphabet Song," "Uncle McDonald Has a Farm," "Ten Little Indians," and so on. Through learning these songs, children broaden their horizons and enhance their interest in communicating with foreign children. Most importantly, all these English songs are recorded in the United States and performed by the renowned children's choir Harmony from Michigan State University. The singing is exceptionally beautiful, making it a delightful experience even for entertainment. Compared to nursery rhymes sung by adults, those sung by children have clearer and more crisp voices, and their pronunciation is also clearer, making them more suitable for children to learn. Moreover, imitating the pronunciation of children from English-speaking countries from a young age will make your child's English more authentic and natural. Just think about it—by owning this set of books, you are essentially finding a group of American playmates for your child. This set of "New Oriental English Songs" is divided into three volumes: "Golden Childhood," "My Animal Partners," and "Mom's Songs—Lullabies," each accompanied by a cassette tape. The book includes Chinese translations of each nursery rhyme, annotations and explanations for more challenging vocabulary, and beautiful illustrations. Among them, "Mom's Songs—Lullabies" has a soft and melodious melody, which can not only calm the baby's emotions but also allow mothers to sing along. Of course, if you ask your child to learn, how can you not set an example yourself? Moreover, singing English lullabies to soothe your baby to sleep is also a unique and beautiful experience.
