This is exactly what i wanted.

Rock 'N Learn: Multiplication Rock
I purchased this because i wanted to put some thing in the car as a review tool. Just once a day reinforces the multiplication facts.
It doesnt take long-such as a short trip to the grocery store for my child to listen to this video. It also (thank goodness) is pleasant to listen to while driving- no hard rock or screaming cartoons.

Learning through repetition

It is important to note that this DVD isn't really geared towards teaching younger children their multiplication tables, but is more a reinforcement tool for students who are learning tables in school, and need to build up their confidence.

Each set of tables, two through twelve, is sung to a basic rock beat, and then repeated with a slight pause before the answer is given. This allows the child a chance to say the answer out loud and "beat" the video to it. Each set of tables has a unique theme, such as space exploration, which makes it far more interesting to look at than just numbers on a sheet of paper.

Pros:
1. It's much easier to get a child to practice their multiplication tables via music video rather than repeated recitation.
2. The graphics are clear, colorful and easy to understand

Cons:
1. The songs aren't very catchy, and are delivered in a monotone.
2. There's not enough variety in the musical beats

Overall, recommended for students from around seven and up, who need a little help in memorizing the multiplication tables they're learning in school.
