Spanish For Kids - Free

By Noah M. Benjamin

There ways to learn Spanish for kids, free, and what may surprise you is that these free methods are actually the best way for your kids to learn Spanish! Kids are able to pick up languages remarkably fast, if they are just exposed to them properly. Try out some of these free methods of learning Spanish for kids.

Before getting into these methods, I want to explain how children best learn a new language. Your child learned his or her very first language without any training, and in fact, without any prior knowledge of language at all. How did this happen? Simple -- your child was IMMERSED in the language all day, every day, and his or her brain forced them to learn the language! This is no different for the child's second language.

Find a way to immerse your kid in his or her second language and they will learn Spanish very quickly. Many immersion techniques are actually free.

1. If you have a nanny or baby sitter, make sure he or she speaks Spanish! This is very easy to find. There are also foreign exchange programs where, if you just put up a student, they will be a permanent nanny or baby sitter for a specific period of time for you. Many of these programs can get English/Spanish speaking students from Central and South America. Have your baby sitter speak to your children in ONLY Spanish. They will pick up the language VERY quickly this way.

2. Have a Spanish-speaking relative stay with you for a week or longer. Have that relative speak to your children only in Spanish.

3. Find a list of Spanish words and their translations online, and play flash card games with your kids. Make a game out of learning Spanish words! If your kids learn basic Spanish words and have fun doing it, they are more likely to retain those words for the rest of their lives.

Those are three of the ways I helped to teach Spanish for my kids free. Find ways to immerse your kids in the language and they will learn very rapidly!

The top-performing students in American schools today are bilingual. Find out for FREE how to get your child on the same path to success learning Spanish.
