December’s Giveaway from Bilingual Readers

Christmas is fast approaching, and we at the LBBC are encouraging parents to give a book or two as gifts for your children. To help you all accomplish this, we have a wonderful giveaway from our amigos at Bilingual Readers. BR is a new publishing company out of Spain, aimed at creating quality bilingual books for children learning Spanish or English. The have recently released their first three products, two of which they were kind enough to send to us as a giveaway for you, our dear friends.

The first item we have, is their set of animal books. These two little libros come nicely packaged in their own sturdy slipcase. The set includes Sea Animals/Animales del mar and Jungle Animals/Animales de la selva. Perfect for children ages newborn to 3 years, these books teach simple vocabulary in both English and Spanish. Each page focuses on one animal with the name in English above and the name in Spanish below. The illustrations are simply adorable. Parents will love how both board books come with rounded corners and washable pages (Wooohoo!)

The second giveaway is for Biligual Reader’s Easy Alphabet!/ ¡Abecedario fácil! This set is SO MUCH FUN! Packaged in a sturdy keepsake box with a magnetic closure, Easy Alphabet is made up of 27 cards plus a guide for parents. The guide is in both English and Spanish and describes different ways in which to use the cards with your child. An excellent product for developing your child’s early literacy skills, this set is geared for children ages 1 year and older. Even better, it grows with your child as you’ll see by the different activities listed in the parent’s guide. Like the board books described above, these cards are nice and thick with rounded corners.

As an additional bonus, parents can visit BilingualReaders.com to find free audio files and extra activities to supplement these products. Bilingual Readers also has another title that it has released titled, Marina and the Little Green Boy. To learn more about it, or to purchase directly from Bilingual Readers, click here.

I really want to win the Abecedario Fácil because Roxana received one and can´t stop raving about it. Plus, my girl is just starting to learn letters, so it´s perfect.
I´m actually looking for a toy that sings the alphabet in Spanish to gift to my girl this Christmas. Not an easy find!
Thanks!!

I'm only 5 months pregnant, but I'm starting our bilingual collection - I read the stories in Spanish and my husband reads to the baby in English. It's never too early to encourage biliteracy!

I just bought my nenes one of my favorite bilingual books- I love Saturdays and Domingos- to add to their collection. And I plan to buy them also a couple of more bilingual videos.

The Abecedario facil would be a great additions to our teaching materials.

Well, this blog is my dream come true, lol. I was looking for some information about bilingual readings for my little baby and I found you!!!. My baby is is 5 months old and I'm trying to figure out what is the best gift for her to keep encouraging her to speak both languages. She is so smart so I know I have to aprovechar eso. I would like to find something "BBB... bueno, bonito y barato!" :) Merry Christmas to all!
