Color & Learn Easy Spanish Phrases for Kids (Dover Little Activity Books)

Just received this little book today and it is so awesome. I want to teach my little girl German phrases as she learns English phrases in hopes that she will be somewhat bilingual. I needed a refresh myself. This little book has all of the everyday phrases that I will need to start out. It does a great job at helping you pronounce the words. Great buy.

My Austrian foreign exchange student, whose native language is German, said that the phonic spelling of the German words are wrong. This is not a good way to teach young children German...when they talk to someone from a German speaking country they will be saying the words wrong and won't be understood.

As other reviews have said, definitely not an average sized coloring book. It's about the size of my hand. Will be hard to color each page and hold book pages open since it's so tiny. My own fault for not checking size. Wish they would make this in a larger size.

As others have noted, this book is very small...maybe about 4 inches high. I was expecting a full-size colouring book, and it would be a great find if it was. That said, the content is good and well suited to a 6 or 7 year old I think. My 3 year old has no hope of colouring anywhere in these small pages, but that's ok. Will hang onto it until she gets a bit older.

This book is good for basic/beginners. My only complaint is the size of the book--it's SMALL. You can learn from it, yes. However the 'Color' part of the title is misleading. If you press down on the left side of book (either with a hand or crayon/marker) when it's opened, the pages on the right side try to flip shut it's so small. If you want to use it as a coloring book, you'll have to tear the pages out to make it really usable.

Love this product!! Great introduction to German phrases and vocabulary, adorable illustrations to color, and its the PERFECT size to throw in your purse/diaper bag with a few crayons for on the go educational entertainment. My toddler loves this book and is always asking me to read it to him. Highly recommend!
