Learn a new language on the library's website

Massillon Public Library Children’s Department is pleased to announce an exciting opportunity temporarily available on the library’s website. MUZZY, the "see and say, listen and learn" foreign language program for children can be accessed by patrons for the next 30 days courtesy of publisher Early Advantage.

UPDATE: Massillon Public Library is now ordering a subscription to MUZZY so that you will be able to use it via our website (massillonlibrary.org) for one year! Just go to our  Children's page on MPL's website and click on MUZZY online to get started learning.

 

The acclaimed MUZZY language learning courses created by the British Broadcasting Corporation target every child's "window of opportunity" years to learn a second or even a third language. The loveable fuzzy green extraterrestrial Muzzy and his fun friends will guide your child on the journey to learning a new language naturally and without effort.

The BBC's reputation as a teacher of languages is unparalleled, and their reach is substantial. MUZZY is the most popular language learning program ever created for children. MUZZY has been used in national curriculum (for example, in Canada and France), in progressive public and private schools from Thailand to Turkey and in homes from the U.S. and U.K. to Mexico and China.

Constantly evolving, the MUZZY Language Course offerings have grown to include eight world languages, classroom materials, books, toys and more. Now, with MUZZY Online, children can have immediate access to the same award-winning content and a new, fun format available exclusively through Early Advantage. Play interactive games and activities and watch the Muzzy story in English, French, Italian, German or Spanish. For immersion learning, watch the Muzzy story in Mandarin Chinese, Portuguese or Russian. Choose your language, then click on “Movie Time with Muzzy” to learn Muzzy’s story.

Over the years, MUZZY has become an internationally recognized program and has won numerous awards, such as:

Parents Choice Gold Award

iParenting Media Award

American Association of Teachers of German

English Speaking Union Award
