White Plains, NY, September 9, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Kids’ Candor, a US provider of bilingual tools for early childhood development, has set out to complete production and publishing of 192 original children songs in a period of 12 months. Each of these will be written in both English and Spanish, and there is a third bilingual version (English, Spanish). This totals 576 tracks.
As of September 8, a total of 84 songs had been already written, which is almost half of the target. 40 of these (120 tracks) are already being published in 10 CD’s, which constitute the music element of 2 months’ worth of educational materials. Kids’ Candor is on schedule to complete the 576 tracks by end March 2016, likely one of the largest children music projects ever undertaken.
"The materials found currently in the market are created in one language and then translated into the other. Hardly anything out there has been created in both languages. Content, quality and cultural references are inevitably lost in translation".
Lourdes Ramon, President and Co-Founder
Based on a subscription model, each month their customers receive one kit crafted for the child’s development stage (from 5 possible stages), which includes 1 CD with 12 original tracks, as well as guided activities, books, toys and other educational materials. While ambitious in scope, the music project is only part of a bigger vision that includes also the creation of original books and eventually the toys as well.
The rationale for wanting to create the content in-house stems from the low perceived quality and overall availability of truly bilingual music and other materials. As Lourdes Ramón, founder of Kids’ Candor, explains: “The materials found currently in the market are created in one language and then translated into the other. Hardly anything out there has been created in both languages. Content, quality and cultural references are inevitably lost in translation”.
Kids’ Candor expects to open its online store in mid September and plans to offer its music to the public as a stand alone downloads. They will open with 120 tracks.
