WHY LEARN AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE?
Scientists and education professionals all agree the earlier we are exposed to a language, the more easily our brains adjust to different frequencies. This helps us distinguish and reproduce sounds more easily resulting in a better accent.

WHY EASY READER?
Imagine your child listening to native speakers while playing with hand-drawn pictures. Imagine your child learning words with the right accent from the start !!

Imagine how the diversity of the activities will keep your child interested. It will pick up the different words very easily as they keep coming back.

The hand-made drawings create a warm atmosphere and favor the memorization of the vocabulary. Drawings contain less information as photos imagine how your child’s brain will more easily focus on the spelling and the sound of the words.

In gender-based languages like German, French or Spanish the words are displayed with different colors according to their gender. This facilitates the right memorization from the start.
