I am going to definitely be using this as I attempt (very slowly) to introduce a third language in our home. I can already see my extremely active and curious and ready-to-please 3 1/2-year-old having a blast with it!

Thanks for letting us know about it, Susan! We can’t wait to see what else you have in store for all of us!

I love that game , Mata Moscas! I have a 22 month old and she too will be raised trilingual. I speak Spanish, my husband Croatian, and English from when hubby and I talk. I can see in my daughter's eyes she is eager to learn. She is beginning to repeat everything back. I think she knows more croatian than me! Welcome aboard! .-= Elisa´s last blog ..Happy To Be Living In Croatia =-.

I love the Mata Moscas game idea. It’s a great game for little kids to learn. Plus it allows them to run around swatting things using up their endless supply of energy at the same time.

Excellent idea! I have no doubt in my mind that my daughter will enjoy playing Mata Moscas! I also plan to incorporate this game with my students! I look forward to hearing more from you! Thanks!

Susan, thanks for the great idea! I think sometimes I forget that leaning a language should be fun! I will try this game with my two sons, I’ll make a race, because my kids are just into racing everywhere they would love it!

I love the Mata Moscas game! I used to play it w/ my high school students and just recently tried it again w/ my young students last month. It is a hit and so easy to adapt. Looking forward to hearing more from you!

She totally had us when we read about her flyswatter game! We know we’ve been missing on having these type of bilingual play ideas and are so happy Susan is joining us and sharing hers.
