The perfect guide for this Spanish Speaking Mama with English Speaking Kiddos
I am a fluent spanish speaking mother who never taught her children how to speak spanish and now I regret it. lol Ok so although I am fluent I honestly had no idea where to start with my children who already are used to me speaking English with them and don't even know the basics of Spanish so I bought this book (and several others) to give me a road map on where to start. Out of all my purchases for this issue this one is my favorite. It has mini lessons based on conversational spanish that begin with vocabulary. So now I know what to focus on first. It has grammar notes, cultural notes and phonetic spelling. The cultural notes are not just Mexico or Spain related and introduces many spanish speaking countries and their different cultures. I plan on using this little cultural note to point me towards teaching my children more about other countries. I will have to change a few words in the book for my specific dialect which is OK I am not complaining!
