## What is Clipounets?

*** THE OFFICIAL CLIPOUNETS APP ***
Awaken your little one to the world of French with traditional acoustic nursery rhymes loved in France for nearly 30 years. 

Classics like Alouette, Frère Jacques, and Pirouette Cacahuète combine a magical world of animals, rhyming words, acoustic music, and little children’s voices, with hand-drawn animation for truly soulful content that’s safe and educational for your little one.

By sharing these happy moments with your child, you will also find that their French vocabulary and pronunciation widens.

Created by French educators, child psychologists, professional musicians, and parents, Clipounets introduces little ones to the world of words through musical memory, repetition, and aural and visual cues.

* CLIPOUNETS AWAKENS LANGUAGE *
Clipounets awakens children to the world of French with melodies and simple words that are easy to sing.

* RESPECTS YOUR LITTLE ONE’S ATTENTION SKILLS *
with songs whose duration, rhythm of images, and drawings are suitable for toddlers.

* MOTIVATES TO READ *
The written subtitles help your child discover the written form of his or her favorite songs.

** THE CLIPOUNETS STORY **
In Paris in the early 1990s, a group of parent-musicians whose children were in preschool together struggled to find high quality traditional French nursery rhymes for their little ones and started recording their own versions.

A year later, with professional musicians, we recorded these parents & their little ones and published the famous "Compil des Petits Minous" which became the most popular nursery rhyme album in preschools and kindergartens in France in the ‘90s.

In 1994, we produced some of these albums into cartoons. This was the birth of Clipounets: small musical clips to awaken children to language.

The clips are scripted, drawn, and animated by artists; following guidelines put together by a panel of educators and children specialists, focused on teaching language in sweet, calm, and engaging ways.

From the beginning, Clipounets are always constructed in two parts: a first clip for the child to discover the story, followed by a second pass with words in big subtitles to start their reading skills.

This process allows your child to discover that the lyrics of their favorite songs are written, which helps them become familiar with the world of reading.

### 1/5 — Do I have to pay again?

*2021-04-14, version 5.1.2*

I bought the whole pack for ios 10. Worked very well. My daughter loved it. Did not work under ios 11. Then it worked. Only difference was that I had to constantly download the different songs as the downloads will become inaccessible after some time. Now I cannot even download. I can only play classic 1.

### 5/5 — Sweet French culture

*2020-12-30*

I love showing my daughter clipounets- videos I feel good about! It teaches us both about French culture and for that I am très grateful. It’s even helped me with my pronunciation.

### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne plus

*2018-06-26, version 5.0.39*

J’aimais bien l’app, mais depuis plusieurs semaines elle ne fonctionne plus. Domage!

### 2/5 — We love it but it never works

*2018-05-06, version 5.0.39*

My daughter has loved this app for a
long time.  Since they reformatted the app, we have had no end of trouble accessing it.
 We just got the last updated version to work and they updated it again, now we cannot open the app at all.  We also paid for the downloads a few years ago, and now that it is a subscription service, I am concerned we won’t be able to access what we originally paid for.  I cannot contact anyone - the link from the App Store doesn’t take me anywhere.

### 1/5 — Version not working!!

*2018-04-22*

Ca ne marche plus!!

**Developer response:** Bonjour, Nous avons corrigé ce problème dans la nouvelle mise à jour. Vos avis nous sont très importants, nous vous serions reconnaissant si vous pouviez mettre à jour votre avis et votre note. Pour toute question, vous pouvez nous contacter par email à contact@clipounets.com. Bien cordialement, Le service client Clipounets

### 2/5 — Some issues

*2014-03-25*

The songs are good, but the app is buggy with iOS 7 (playlists and next song button do not work) and songs are slow to download.

### 5/5 — Cool

*2013-01-03, version 4.2*

Cool pour les petits
