Little Pim is an affordable, fun and convenient way to expose children to foreign languages. Their website states that it is for ages 0-5 years old. Several moms that I know have used it at home and have loved it! The reviews are really good. You can order DVDs and materials on the Little Pim website, Toysrus and Amazon websites.
