Tips for parents

  • Start from what your child already loves: if they know dinosaur names, the Italian words around them come easily.
  • Stomp, roar and flap along. Big movements make the describing words stick.
  • Use toy dinosaurs to act out the songs and name each one's size and color in Italian.
