Starting Spanish at a young age

Everything we've read about teaching foreign languages is that the younger you start, the better they do. So we're teaching Spanish to our kindergartener and second grader.

There are a number of things we're using, the primary tool being Rosetta Stone. We also picked up Mia's Language Adventure: The Kidnap Caper from the local library. The kids love it.

We're also going to have them start using the Google Translate. It's a really cool service I recently came across that translates as you type. Their first task will be to write a letter to Santa Claus translated into Spanish. Won't that be fun?

Here are a couple of other things they'll do:

• A nouns puzzle
• A crossword of days, months and seasons
• A cycle race
• Some printables from SpanishTown
• L0t's more

Anyone else have some fun, free stuff for young kids to learn Spanish? Leave a comment below.
