“I introduced the Spanish Zoo book yesterday in my in child care program and it has been a hit! Children are carrying the book around to hear the music and already trying to replicate the Spanish animal names (all English speakers). Thanks for this amazing resource! [And 3 months later]: The zoo book is STILL a favorite on our classroom shelf for children of all ages - thank you for making such a wonderful product!”

COLORING BOOKS
Educator Tips:
Support their creativity by focusing on fun, not perfection.
Offer fun tools like jumbo crayons, washable markers, or even a splash of glitter paint to make art time extra special.
Pair the coloring pages with cut-outs from magazines or newspapers in the target language. It adds more hands-on time with the language while making their artwork even more fun and layered.
MEMORY GAMES
Memory Games & Related Activities That Make Learning a Blast!
Guided Imagery Relaxation: Before starting the game, have the children close their eyes while you describe one of the themed environments in detail. For instance, describe the sounds and sights of a zoo visit, the feeling of ocean waves, or the smell of the forest while camping. This can relax children and get them excited about the game, enhancing their focus and memory retention.
Personalized Backdrops: Encourage children to draw or color a thematic scene on a large piece of paper where they can place the cards for the game. A zoo scene with cages and trees, an underwater seascape, or a campsite can make the game more engaging.
Mix and Match with Realia: Integrate real objects related to the themes with the cards. For example, include a small stuffed animal for the zoo theme, a shell for the ocean theme, or a mini flashlight for camping. After finding a match, children can pair the card with the object.
Flashlight Fun: Turn off the lights and play the memory game using a flashlight to find and illuminate the cards. This can be especially fun with the camping theme, mimicking a nighttime adventure.
Card Scavenger Hunt: Hide the cards around the room and have the children find one, then return to the main playing area to find its match among a laid-out set of cards.
Themed Snacks: Incorporate snacks that align with the theme to enjoy after gameplay. Animal crackers for the zoo, goldfish crackers for the ocean, and s'mores for camping are just some ideas.
Storytime Integration: Pair the memory game with storytime, where each matched pair of cards leads to a page or passage in a story that connects with the theme.
Themed Music: Play thematic music in the background while playing the game. Animal sounds or jungle music for the zoo, ocean waves or aquatic music for the ocean, and nature sounds or campfire songs for camping can enrich the experience.
Puzzle Piece Rewards: Each time a child makes a match, they earn a piece of a puzzle related to the theme. Completing the puzzle can be a goal that complements the memory game.
Deeper Dive, Language Learning: For bilingual households or classrooms, use the target language to describe the pictures on the cards. This can reinforce new vocabulary and language skills while playing the game.
Positive Reinforcement: Offer praise for effort, not just for finding a pair, to encourage a positive learning environment. Use phrases like “Great try!” or “You're remembering well!”
Along with these engaging activities, it's key to remember that exposure to language should be a delightful experience. Whether the memory game is played in the target language or the native language of the child, the focus should be on the joy of learning and the excitement of discovery. The use of their native language ensures that children are comfortable and supported while also being introduced to the new language in an stress-free way. By providing a gentle introduction to language, these memory games will not only help children learn new words but also create fond memories associated with the language learning process.
Don’t speak the target language? Just use your book for playback whenever correct pronunication is needed.
FLASHCARD SETS
A Myriad of Outside-the-Box Ways to Use Flashcards for Playful Learning
Tactile Cards: Enhance flashcards by adding textures. Stick on faux fur for a panda bear, a patch of smooth fabric for a dolphin, or a piece of tent-like material for camping-related words.
Themed Sounds: Encourage the kids to imitate the sound that the animal makes or, for non-animal cards, a sound associated with the object when they see the card. This auditory association helps cement the word in their memory.
Match and Move: To add a physical element, have the child perform a simple action related to the card as they say the word. For example, stretch up high like a giraffe, wiggle like a fish, or pretend to roast a marshmallow.
Storytelling: Use the flashcard as a prompt to tell a short story or share an interesting fact. "Did you know lions live in groups called prides?" This method turns a simple word recognition exercise into a language-rich storytelling session.
Memory Rhymes: Invent catchy rhymes that describe the flashcard’s image or create a fun story about it. "Here sits a lion, mighty and brave, king of the jungle, he loves to roar and wave!"
Use Thematic Props: Pair the flashcard with a related prop. Hold a small stuffed lion while teaching the word "lion" or a shell when teaching "sea". It’s an engaging way to enhance the learning experience.
Label Reading: Practice reading the word on each card aloud. Use your finger to trace the letters, helping children connect the written word with its pronunciation and meaning.
Turn Taking and Sharing: If using the cards in a group, encourage children to take turns picking and explaining a card. This teaches patience and gives each child a chance to shine.
Language Layering: After listening to the word from the talking book, adults can repeat the word first in their native language and then in the target language. This ‘language layering’ technique helps the child associate the new word with one they already know, making it less intimidating.
Cultural Connection: Introduce a cultural aspect related to the word. For instance, if the flashcard shows a panda, talk about where pandas live and what they eat.
Remember, the goal of introducing a new language through these flashcards is to create a positive and stress-free learning experience. It’s perfectly fine to conduct activities and discussions in your native language; the important aspect is the gentle exposure to the sights and sounds of a new language. This approach ensures that the 12 words on these flashcards become a beloved part of your child’s vocabulary and that the language itself becomes associated with curiosity and joy.
BINGO GAMES
Let’s Shake up Bingo as You May Have Known It, Shall We?!
Cultural Immersion: Use currency or coins from the target country to expose your child to the culture while playing bingo.
Thematic Bingo Dabbers: Use themed markers for bingo dabbers. For instance, use animal stamps for a zoo theme, small seashells for an ocean theme, or pine cone bits for a camping theme. This adds a tactile and visual element that ties back to the theme.
Language Practice: Take it a step further by using the occasion to count or do math in the target language, enhancing language skills while playing.
Personalization: Print the bingo cards in greyscale and allow the kids to color them, fostering creativity and ownership of the project.
Durability: Laminate the cards to keep them clean and long-lasting, ensuring hours of repeated play.
Language Reinforcement: The instructions are also provided in the target language, providing additional language practice opportunities if you're able to read them together.
Rewarding Exploration: Offer a small incentive for kids to speak or ask questions about the items on the bingo cards in the target language, such as “What is this?” or “How do you say that?” Encouraging curiosity will make the learning process more interactive and rewarding.
Remember, the essence of learning with these bingo games is not about winning or mastering the language; it's about immersing in the joy of learning and celebrating something new. The laughter, the shared moments of excitement, and the gentle exposure to new words and numbers in the target language will create a warm and memorable learning environment. This joyful approach ensures that your child associates language learning with positive emotions and experiences, laying the foundation for a lifelong appreciation for new languages and cultures.
