¡Práctica más!
We hope to offer you some easy tips to practice at home or on the go! All are available to the general public. However, when you become a part of the Mariposas Family, we provide you with additional avenues to practice our Spanish lessons outside of the classroom (see blue block at bottom of page).
Below, you will find many ways you can experience the language and its culture. It is our hope that you will find one that works best for your family!
Music in Spanish for Kids
Listen to our favorite songs at home! We have two albums, Cha Cha Cha! and our newest album Celebrando con Mariposas! (created by former member of Grupo Fantasma/current Black Pumas guitarist, Adrian Quesada). Both albums include some of the top favorites from our classes and are created and produced by local musicians with catchy Latin Rhythms!
Mariposas Curated Playlists and Podcast Episodes
Follow us on Spotify to listen to our Mariposas favorites. You will find specially curated playlists according to different genres, our favorite podcast episodes, and even some kids favorites.
Access our Teaching Materials! Visit out Teachers Pay Teacher’s page to access our Mariposas original posters, flashcards, and other resources. These materials are great when printed and will make a great educational addition to your home or learning spaces. Check back with our page frequently so you don’t miss any new uploads!
Digital Language Learning
Our Kids Spanish Apps have been updated!
We’ve teamed up with friends to create an interactive Montessori based Spanish APP. Spanish School Bus, recognized as top three Spanish APPS by Latina Magazine, goes through levels of basic vocabulary, numbers, verbs and includes games and music videos with some of our favorite songs. Now available as a subscription!
YouTube Basic Spanish Lessons
Subscribe to our YouTube page to view videos we have created of basic lessons/vocabulary that are Montessori based and include songs.
Other Ways to Learn
Read books in Spanish!
We love the books that Cuentology offers for all levels. They are a local Austin business with great taste in books. Visit their site to pick up a book, and let them know we sent you!
Learn through stories with Fabulingua!
FabuLingua is a story-based language learning app that your child can enjoy independently. Beautiful interactive stories and fun games from storytellers across Spain and Latin America further develop language skills and reinforce in-class learning.
