I've constantly found it fascinating and intellectually wise to learn new languages. This aspect is a bonus for young kids. There are multiple languages: Italian, German, Portuguese, and Swahili, among others. By learning new languages, we appreciate diverse cultures and religions. We learn to coexist with people who seem different from us. We respect other people's backgrounds. But how many kids are willing to acquire new languages and skills? How many parents encourage their children to grasp new things?

In My First Colors in Spanish by Cynthya A Pagan, kids learn colors in Spanish. Let's learn a few. Verde is Spanish for green. Amarillo is yellow, azul is blue, and morado is purple. But there are so many more colors in the universe. How about you grab a copy and acquire more knowledge.

The book comes with its goodies. As the author teaches colors and more of them, she includes a blank drawing. Kids are actively involved in coloring the empty pictures. Besides physical involvement, Cynthia includes mental quizzes. She inserts different pictorials with varied colors and invites kids to identify a specific one. Such questions encourage the audience to be attentive and absorb knowledge. These are among the things I cherished.

The book is very brief. There are numerous benefits of learning new words and skills. The Spanish diffused will improve kids' dialect. Plus, they will have a wide variety of job opportunities. Besides being subtle, young ones will learn about better decision-making.

Given that there were no grammatical errors, the book is exceptionally well edited. Enlightenment was one thing, but I was astonished to learn the word "negro" is Spanish for black. I was uncomfortable with the term to the extent of looking severally on different external sites. But that was it, and it's an uncomfortable fact.

I had nothing to despise. So, I rate the book 4 out of 4 stars. I recommend it to young children willing to learn Spanish.

I agree with you about the value of learning languages. Where I live, many people only speak Spanish. This would be an excellent book for children to start learning so they can communicate more effectively in their community and at school.

[Elenimo Chembe]

I only know two languages; my native language and English. Adding another language would be a great adventure and this book looks like a great starting point.

Encouraging language learning and increasing opportunities to communicate with others and an encouraging start to learn Spanish A useful book for learning

[Leerna Priss]

I do encourage kids to learn many languages in their young age because it will be a great asset in the future. For me I only learned 3 languages and I believe there are room for more!

[Azubike Richard]

Learning different languages is very important because it will help us mix easily with other people's tribe. I am glad this book discussion is about learning languages.

Learning is easier and faster when done in a fun way, I think this book will be helpful to not only kids but also to adults who want to learn the languages therein.
