If you’ve been rereading books you adore, welcome to the club. Like a well-loved blanket and a favorite set of jammies, familiar books, worlds and stories may be exactly what you need when everything both changes by the minute and remains relentlessly the same. (Breaking news: The couch is still comfortable, and I am still on it.)
Este año, mientras nos quedamos en casa durante la pandemia Covid-19, no podemos organizar fiestas grandes de Cinco de Mayo. Sin embargo, ¡todavía podemos festejar el patrimonio mexicano de otras maneras! Busca información sobre historia o geografía mexicana; intenta en crear artesanía folklórica; escucha a música popular mexicana; o prepara algunas comidas mexicanas favoritas.
Cinco de Mayo is a great time to brush up on your Spanish. Caribu offers a wide selection of Spanish language books for beginners to advanced readers. Introduce your kids to the basics or practice with more challenging texts. Here are some of our favorites!
If you can get the kid to love reading—if you can just get them to catch the reading bug—then you’re setting them up for future success, because reading lays the foundation for achievement.
