    Super Simple Learning

Today's site, from a commercial enterprise, offers an introduction to their 
highly regarded range of learning tools for young children. Gentle Subscribers 
will find not only educational supplies for sale but a helpful variety of free 
resources.

"Super Simple Learning began in the classroom when, as teachers, we noticed 
that even the most basic children's songs were sometimes too difficult in many 
traditional recordings. We saw that when songs were too fast, too lyrically 
complex, or too difficult ... many young learners would simply tune out. ... 
Simple features ... make the songs attractive to young emerging speakers 
everywhere (native English speaking toddlers, special needs students, and 
children with speech and hearing difficulties)." - from the website

Although intended primarily as a gateway for online purchases, the site extols 
the advantages and successes of its learning approach, as well as providing 
free supplemental tools. Flashcards, ABC worksheets, coloring pages and crafts, 
along with online phonics games are available, while the Get in Touch link to 
YouTube at the bottom of the page leads to the program's collection of videos. 
These include their unforgettable version of "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star" 
whose counter indicates an eye-opening, but unsurprising 300 million views.
