I had the opportunity to review the five bilingual board books that form part of the Arte Kids Books collection: Black & Blanco!, Colors Everywhere, 1,2,3 Sí. Animal Amigos! Hello Círculos! are colorful and full of learning opportunities! The sturdy board books provide colorful images, text in English and Spanish and at the end of each book, an explanation of the artwork that is included on each page. The artwork in the books are quite diverse, coming from all over the world.
One of the things I loved about this series is that it provides learning opportunities for younger and older children. For a younger child that is not very verbal yet, the books are great because of the great colorful pictures, and simplicity of the text. With older children, a parent can talk about the artwork, where the artists are from in the world, etc. The books also provide questions that create an interactive experience. For example, “Can you walk like an elephant?/Puedes caminar como un elefante?”
These books will open a world of color, art and fun to your little one. Make sure you check them out!

No puedo esperar para leer Animal Amigos!: Artsy Creatures in English y Español, pero no tengo niños, solamente voy a leerlo en mi clase!
I’m most excited about Black & Blanco! because it expands on my preschooler’s knowledge of colors and also because the contrast of the colors on the page will be engaging to my 13-month old!

I would love to read the colores book! I think it’s a great way to get my boys to look at a painting and spot the different colors. Thank you so much for sharing these wonderful books with us.
While it’s difficult to choose only one (since these are all fantastic) I would pick “Animal Amigos!” to read to my little one.

I did not know about this collection. It looks great! I hope I win! My 8 month old would love it!
I would love to read 123si with my little one! One grandma speaks English and the other Spanish, these books are perfect for her!
Looking forward to the shapes book. And learning Spanish alongside my son!
Colores Everywhere! My infant twins would love looking at the vibrant colors.
My first Grandson will be raised to be bi-lingual. These books will be a great addition to his library!
Black and Blanco would be a favorite!
I’m teaching Spanish to little kids and I’m always looking for good and very illustrative material to show to them. These books look great, but I really like that they not only teach about numbers and colors in Spanish but also about the culture the Spanish language represents and that it’s so important to me.
I am excited about the numbers a nd animals one. My 2 year old twin girls would love these books they love looking at books with animals and love to count the steps as they go down. It would help supplement their Spanish vocabulary.
I am excited about reading 1, 2, 3, Si! with my 2 year old. He LOVES counting. Just loves it. It makes him happy. I think he’d be thrilled about this book as well as the others.

All of them look great, but Black and Blanco would be fun because my son was born a few hours outside of San Antonio.
I like black and blanco. Thanks.

Me super encantan todos! Pero el que más me llama la atención es Colores Everywhere
Love the concept of all the book being bi-lingual. Am most excited about the 1,2,3 Si. I have a young granddaughter that would benefit greatly from it as well as the other books since I am trying to have her learn and maintain the Spanish language.
Black & Blanco!: Engaging Art in English y Español sounds exciting.

I like 1,2,3 numbers in English and espanol
