this is a great watch not just for the tense dense language that is spanish but for a lark around with grammar generally (there's subtitles!). also, for my generation onwards, a chance to see just how hamstrung we are without a proper grammar education. bad teaching? definitely an element? the ideology of 'making learning fun'? almost certainly. it's almost like a succession of governments, in their commitment to cutting language, arts and music were attacking the population - compare and contrast the educational priorities in private education!
i've long been an advocate of music and activity for children. my young relatives were all functionally bilingual by age 11. if your kids (or you) can't do simple grammar, like identifying a verb, subject or object, it's time to get that grammar book out! lol
