Pamela Conn Beall, Susan Hagen Nipp Buy here. From the best-selling creators of Wee Sing(r) comes a brand-new line designed to teach elementary concepts to young kids through music and song. Each Wee Sing(r) and Learn package contains a 32-page book and a 20-minute cassette focusing on a specific concept-like numbers or colors-using a kid-friendly theme-like sea creatures or farm animals. Educators have long known that there is no better tool than music for teaching young children. Now, Pamela Conn Beall and Susan Hagen Nipp have taken their experience as elementary teachers and matched it with the same musical sensibilities that have charmed and delighted both kids and their parents for almost 25 years.

Travel under the sea for some fabulous fun with numbers. Meet colorful characters-from one giant whale to twelve tiny angelfish. In addition to its own related song and picture, each number will be spoken aloud and counted up to, making for a musical adventure that teaches while it entertains.

Dr. Seuss Buy here. Since 1961, Ten Apples up on Top has been helping preschoolers learn to count and read simultaneously.

Siblings can even take turns reading phrases like "Seven apples up on top. I am so good they will not drop." The inevitable tumbling crash is a great climax for busy toddlers to enjoy, and parents will appreciate the cooperative lesson the last page offers. (Preschool to early reader) —Jill Lightner
