Cast of Multicultural Children Cha-cha into TV
line-up in March
Learning A Second Language Just Got Easier
with Help From the Education Channel
Tampa, Florida (February, 2008) –
There will be bilingual beats blasting out
of television sets this Spring as the demand for bilingual children’s
programming skyrockets. Bilingual music videos will add to language
learning fun as children share catchy songs with viewers. Beth Butler,
founder of the Boca Beth Program, BOCA the language amigo, and a
multicultural cast of young children will cha-cha into homes across
the Tampa Bay Area via The Education Channel starting March 1st.
The program will engage children and family members as BOCA introduces
Spanish and English words and phrases utilizing animals from around
the world.
Studies have shown that learning another language
before the age of six helps children read sooner, show advanced
cognitive development, and score higher on math and verbal sections of
standardized tests. And children learn more when it’s fun to do.
That’s why this program is destined for success.
Today’s savvy parents
will be thrilled to know that Lucy Griggs, Program Director for The
Education Channel has the following to say about this unique
children’s program: “Boca Beth’s music videos offer our youngest
viewers a fun, interactive introduction to another language (Spanish
or English) while they watch a cute puppet and some adorable children
sing, dance and have fun. It’s such a simple, friendly and easy way
to help children acquire new language skills.”
Hoping to reach far
beyond the Tampa Bay Area with the program’s fun and easy way of
introducing Spanish and English together with music, Butler exclaims,
“It’s such an amazing accomplishment to finally make it to TV. We have
been sharing our products for years, and now we are finally getting
this national attention. We hope it enables more families to pick up
a second language together.”
To even further the children’s interactive
enjoyment, free resources for each segment
will be available at
http://www.BocaBeth.com. “I love providing fellow teachers and
moms with the tools they need to bring Spanish to life for their
children. Making these great resources accessible 24/7 and free is
one way I can give back to the community in which I grew up,” Butler
(aka Boca Beth) states.
