AADYAKSHARANGAL- Educational Video Cd

This is a video Cd presented in an attractive manner to help children learn Malayalam comfortably.It targets kids from LKG to Std.II.This digital Cd comes from Anugraha, Kochi.

Each Malayalam alphabet is first visually presented as being written on a slate and simultaneously reinfored by a short matching lyric, that too an easily comprehensible selection over the audio, explained further slowly and with good clarity, where required;along with words beginnning with this alphabet...Sincere efforts have been taken to sustain interest of small children during the session.Music, live characters, nature, good visuals all together makes learning a wonderful experience.

Congrats to Anugraha for this production...

MANJADI

Manjadi-Twinkle,twinkle...volumes I,II,III and Poopi....

The most popular animation video CD for children in Malayalam has been launched by a group of youngsters under the company name "Hibiscus Design"in 2005. As per their own advertisment, its a "cartoon get together" based on stories from the Panchatantra- the real treasure house for kids and most familiar traditional folk songs. The quality of animation is really admirable. The concept is visualised so beautifully and creatively, that the animated anchor doll "Twinkle"is like a friend to most kids. Reasonably priced at a range of Rs.99 to Rs.199 per disc, they have already completed 3 volumes of Manjadi and another one with "Poopi"the inquisitive dog!@ a CD per year... Even kids at playschool level are so fascinated by these songs, the rhythm and the stories that they are glued to their seats, stuck up for ever...It would be nice if a small printed booklet of the songs in each compilation is also enclosed in this series...
