Dust off those old picture books and put them to use!

Remember all of those old board books and picture books you read to your children when they were 1 to 2 years old? Break them out and put them to use again.

Lots of picture books have themes that you can use for your own French lessons. Perhaps you can find one for shapes, colors, opposites, etc. And then make a lesson with that book as the basis.

If you are learning French along with your child, you can have a little cheat sheet with the words in French. They'll never know and if they do know, they won't care.

I think having your children see the pictures as they learn new words will help them to remember the words more. And you will put those old books to good use again!
