Music and language acquisition recommendations

[anastasiaak.livejournal.com]

Hi,

I've never posted to this group before, and the last post regarding www.detskoeradio.com reminded me of a request I have for suggestions. I, at one point, was fairly fluent in Russian, but it's been at least 10 years since I've had the opportunity to use it in any regular capacity, and now I find myself in search of good books and materials to teach my son Russian. I always said I want to teach my children a language or two while still babies, so that they have the advantage when they grow up, in terms of language acquisition. Since I've been out of it for a while, and now that my little boy just turned one (he was also very premature, so couldn't do too much for the first few months he was in the NICU), I'm looking for recommendations on music (including lullabies (we'd also like the words and music - so we may sing, too)), children's books and stories. I've looked at Kniga.com, but since I'm unfamiliar with musical artists, I wasn't sure who to choose. Does anyone here have any suggestions for us?

Thank you in advance!

Help!

Hello. Since I have never traveled to Russia, can someone describe to me what Russia looks like and what the people are like?

Also, I *tried* to translate a song, can someone fix my mistakes??
