How Your Kid Benefits

This activity helps with organization, vocabulary, social skills, while giving kids the opportunity for free word association in Spanish and English.

Bonus Benefit!

The earlier your child starts learning a second language, the more likely they are to achieve native profficiency, with a critical learning period between the ages of 2-4.

Note to Grown-Ups

Good habits take time to build, so hang the poster somewhere visible as a reminder for what little ones should clean up until they can tidy things without a visual aid.
