My kids probably watch at least half of their movies in Spanish. Before I buy any DVD, I always search the back of the case for those magical audio options of Espanol! We don't watch a lot of TV/movies in our little family. With the movies we do watch, I feel good when it can give my kids a little more Spanish exposure.
Thomas and Friends has many DVD's in their series and they can be dubbed into Spanish! I have 3 girls so I didn't know how well they would like a story about trains, but when they watched Thomas & Friends: The Birthday Express, they loved it. The story always presents some kind of problem: a present that gets dirty, not knowing what to do for a talent show, etc. My kids stay so focused into the story. As the story is told, the narrator speaks very slowly. I couldn't help but thinking that this would be a good ESL DVD as well. This cute Birthday Express DVD even comes with a little train whistle as a bonus.
I also reviewed the recent movie, Thomas in Charge. Thomas & Friends movies do a great job of letting the trains show their feelings. They feel embarrassed, frustrated or sad. It is a wonderful way of letting your children understand that it is okay to have these feelings and how to deal with them.
