SUCCESS STORIES

MUZZY is successful around the globe, recognized for its
approach to language learning. But we are most proud of the letters and stories
that we continue to receive from both the members of the first generation of kids
raised on MUZZY who are now in college or launching their careers and the
parents of current MUZZY kids of all ages.

Read on to see what MUZZY kids, parents
and teachers have to say about their
success with this innovative and fun language-learning tool.

“MUZZY gave our kids a great head start,” says the mother of twins. After just eight weeks with MUZZY, twins Ruby and Madeleine (now 3 ½) surprised the entire family by suddenly speaking in Spanish.

“I don’t think she’s aware that she’s even learning another language. It’s just such a natural part of what she does. I am convinced that my daughter will be a fluent Spanish speaker,” says the mother of Jaiden, age 3. “That’s something I wish I’d been able to do.”

"We're really thrilled to bits" about Rose and Leona learning Italian.
