This revised and enlarged edition of the best-selling First Hundred Words in Spanish is wonderful for getting children started in a new language. Above every large picture there are clear illustrations of each word, with the Spanish word and definite article underneath. This encourages direct association of the Spanish word with the object, making it easy to remember. The large pictures provide plenty of opportunities for spotting the object and repeating the word. A complete Spanish/English alphabetical list of the words in the book, with an easy phonetic guide to the Spanish pronunciation, is also included.
Here is a sample page from inside the book:

I ordered this book as a reference for the kids, but more so for myself since I seem struggle more than they do. The book covers beginner/basic words. The layout reminds me of a story book, with each page displaying a scene (for example, parents bathing their kids). Above the main picture, the words are shown in Spanish with an image (so you know what the word is) and the word is also in English below.
It’s definitely more for younger kids, but it helps me a lot when helping the older kids with their Spanish.
I plan on purchasing the Spanish DVD Usborne sells as a supplement to the book.
