How to Build a Spanish Study Routine for Your Child
1. Pick the Right Time Block
Children focus best in short bursts. Aim for one 10-minute session before school and one 5-minute recap before bed. Consistency beats length.
2. Mix Three Modes Each Day
• Input (Listening/Reading) – a song or mini-story in Spanish
• Output (Speaking/Writing) – repeat lines, label an object, or write one sentence
• Play (Games/Movement) – vocabulary bingo or a Dinolingo drag-and-drop game
3. Use a Weekly Theme
Choose topics your child loves—animals, space, food. Monday introduce 5–7 new words; Tuesday–Thursday recycle them in songs, flashcards, and crafts; Friday do a “show and tell.”
4. Rotate Offline and Online Activities
Print tracing sheets or flashcards for car rides. At home, log into the Dinolingo dashboard for animated stories and quizzes that match the same theme.
5. Match Routine to Age Path
Age | Daily Focus | Dinolingo Path |
---|---|---|
2–5 | Touch-to-match pictures & songs | Pre-readers |
6–10 | Reading mini-stories & spelling games | Elementary |
11–14 | Short writing prompts & pronunciation recording | Middle school |
6. Track and Celebrate
Post a sticker chart; every 7-day streak earns a weekend reward (movie night in Spanish!). The Dinolingo parent dashboard shows real-time accuracy so you know which words need extra review.
