Easy Spanish for Kids with Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids®

April 20, 2018 by Selena Robinson Leave a Comment

We’ve been learning Spanish with our kids for the past few years and, while they’ve been enjoying their lessons, they’ve also seemed just a little bit…bored in the process.

It’s understandable. When you learn a foreign language, you spend a lot of time repeating vocabulary words, listening to rules of grammar, and writing sentences over and over. That can get old pretty quickly, especially for little ones.

Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids Spanish Curriculum

I looked around for a program that would be more kid-friendly without being too easy. And that’s when I found out about the Spanish curriculum from Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids®, which is exactly what I was looking for!

With this program, my kids are learning Spanish and having fun at the same time! Worried about time commitments? You can use this program in as little as 15 minutes twice a week!

Read on to see how this Spanish for kids program works and check out how you can score a coupon code or win a copy of the Level 1 lesson free!

Disclosure: I received this product in exchange for this post and I was compensated for my time. All opinions are my own and I was not required to write a positive review.

Help your kids to learn how to converse in Spanish with the fun video lessons from Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids!

Easy Spanish for Kids: Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids®

What’s included in the Spanish for Kids program from Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids®? Here’s a look at Levels 1 and 2.

A Look at Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids Spanish Curriculum

Since we were using the online Spanish curriculum, we received printed workbooks, vocabulary card games, word stickers, a plushie of Squisher, the International Inchworm, a mini frisbee, and a pencil. My five-year-old ran off with Squisher and I haven’t seen him since.

Spanish Courses from Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids

As you can see, the Spanish curriculum includes multiple levels to help kids build on the vocabulary they learn. There are also online quizzes and practice activities for them to try. By the way, if you don’t want to use the online program, you can pick up the Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids® Spanish DVD set instead.

Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids Video Vocabulary Words

In the video lessons, kids use Spanish vocabulary words to have simple conversations. Common objects are labeled with the Spanish vocabulary words for them. (Kids get a chance to do this in their own homes too, as you’ll see later on.)

Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids Video Lesson Vocabulary

Vocabulary words are also introduced on the screen as kids see each object.

Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids Rapid Review Challenge

Plus, they can use the Rapid Review challenge at the end of each level to test their memory of the vocabulary words they learn.

What I love the most about the video lessons, though, is that each lesson follows a simple storyline that’s understandable and funny. My kids couldn’t wait to see what happened next! They enjoyed watching each lesson because it was entertaining and then they wanted to act out the scenes themselves. They were practicing Spanish vocabulary without even knowing it!

Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids Reading Quiz

After each video lesson, kids can take a reading quiz that gives them a chance to match up the vocabulary words with pictures from the video.

Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids Listening Quiz

They can also take a listening quiz to practice identifying Spanish words when they hear them. (Personally, understanding what is said to me has always been my weakest area in Spanish. So helping kids learn to do this early is a great skill.)

Using Foreign Language for Kids by Kids® Spanish for Kids Lessons

Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids Review

While the video lessons from Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids® are awesome, they’re only half of the program! The curriculum also includes lots of workbook and hands-on activities to reinforce what kids learn from the video clips.

Learning Spanish Vocabulary with Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids

We used several of the enclosed Level 1 stickers to label common objects around our home.

Using Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids to Learn Spanish

All of the vocabulary words were covered in the video lesson, so it was easy for the kids to spot them on their own.

Learning Spanish Words with Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids

They even learned to use basic expressions such as me gusta (I like) and no me gusta (I don’t like). As you can see, it was easy for them to figure out which things they like and don’t like around our house.

Spanish Word Search Activity for Kids

We printed a couple of pages from the digital workbook to let them try a few Spanish learning worksheets.

Spanish Vocabulary Word Search

My third-grader was partial to the word search.

Learning Spanish with Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids

And my fourth-grader liked drawing pictures of things he liked and didn’t like. He doesn’t like cleaning – something I was already WELL aware of.

Playing Spanish Vocabulary Card Games with Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids

After we completed level 1, we broke out the Level 1 vocabulary cards to play a spirited game of Go Fish.

Playing Go Fish with Spanish Vocabulary Cards

The vocabulary cards include pictures of objects and scenes from the video lessons and written expressions for the kids to match up.

Learning Spanish with Games from Foreign Languages for Kids by Kids

Even our five-year-old got in on the fun!

Printable Spanish Flashcards: Spanish Weather Flashcards

March 22, 2018 by Selena Robinson 3 Comments

Learning about how to talk about the weather is a great way to build a foreign language vocabulary.

Just think about it: How many times a week do you mention the weather in English? A lot, right?

So for our newest set of printable Spanish flashcards, we’re sharing a Spanish Weather Flashcards pack!

These cards are great for learning how to use common Spanish weather expressions! Read on to get yours!

Spanish Community Helpers Printables

May 6, 2016 by Selena Robinson 7 Comments

We love learning Spanish in our homeschool! And we’ve been sharing printable Spanish flashcards on the blog over the past several months.

This time, though, I wanted to share something a bit more extensive. Which is how we came up with these Spanish community helpers printables!

  • and Chef!

Spanish Community Helper Worksheets

There are printable flashcards for each community helper in English and Spanish, as well as full-size pages with the English and Spanish words and traceable phrases for practice.

One note: Some of the phrases are gender-specific. For example, the image of the firefighter is a woman, so the phrase is “la bombera”. 

Spanish to English Community Helper Vocabulary

If the firefighter is a man, though, the phrase would be “el bombero“. The same is true with the phrase for doctor: a female doctor would be “la médica“, while a male doctor would be “el médico“.

How to Teach Sign Language to Preschoolers

June 16, 2015 by Selena Robinson Leave a Comment

As you might be aware, we use Sign Language fairly often in our family. (For examples, see here, here, here, and here.) Many experts agree that the years from birth to age 5 are the prime years for introducing a foreign language to kids. But is it really possible to teach sign language to preschoolers?

Of course it is! Baby sign language has become extremely popular, so preschoolers are naturals as signing. But what does it take to teach ASL to very young children? Today I’m sharing a post I wrote for Learning 2 Walk that’s all about how to teach sign language to preschoolers!

Today is also another edition of the Laugh and Learn Linkup, so scroll on down to read our features from last week and the newest parenting and homeschooling posts!

How to Teach Sign Language to Preschoolers

How to Teach Sign Language to Preschoolers

One of the biggest suggestions I can give to teach ASL to preschool-aged kids is to keep it extremely simple and relaxed. When young children have fun, they end up learning naturally! And there’s no reason why learning sign language shouldn’t be fun!

For even more tips and suggestions, visit Learning 2 Walk to read the post “How to Teach Sign Language for Preschoolers“!
