MamaLingua is for parents of young kids. While a two-year-old can probably figure out how the app works (it’s that easy), it’s really designed for adults. If you know little to no Spanish, awesome! The app is for you! (If you’re fluent in Spanish and your significant other is ready to learn, then the app is for them!) MamaLingua offers a way for parents to learn Spanish and teach it to their children. Learn, and then teach. How do we do it? Through everyday routine. MamaLingua is based on something called “chunk” learning. It’s all about breaking down information into bite-sized pieces that are related to one another. Like in daily routines. If you do something every day, like feeding your kiddos, you can start to build your vocabulary around food one word at a time. The information “sticks” because it’s relevant, and because you use it every day. Spanish for Kids
How Do I Use It? We like the idea of targeting one routine at a time. Save your practice words and phrases to your favorites list and use them during that routine. Over time, those words will start to stick, and your little one will learn them, too. Tah-dah! Language acquisition! Want more ideas? How Does It Differ from Other Apps? If you’ve used another app to begin learning Spanish, terrific! MamaLingua can be used right alongside it. The difference between other language-learning apps and MamaLingua is the specific focus on language you use every day with your young kids. Will I Confuse My Child? Like you, we’ve heard a lot about early language development. We even wondered whether or not our kiddos would get confused learning a second language while learning their first one. Nope!
