ABC Song | Super Simple Songs

Posted by

It’s the ABC Song made super simple for emerging speakers ^_^. Special extended version of The Alphabet Song now available on the first Super Simple Songs™ DVD.

iTunes: http://bit.ly/TheAlphabetSongLearnIt_iTunes

In this version, we slow the song down and speak the letters very clearly, so young learners can catch and understand each letter. You’ll also notice we remove the “and” between “Y and Z”. Many young learners confuse that “and” for a letter name when first hearing the song.
