    It is very difficult to find German learning resources for the homeschool room, especially for little kids. I have used Spielerisch Deutsch, and am planning to try Cherrydale Press this year. Have you heard of Cherrydale before?

      Hi Nadine,
      I am not familiar with Cherrydale Press. Sorry, I don’t have any advice for you. With my kids, I used lots of pictures/clipart as the basis of our learning new vocabulary. We tend to play lots of bingo… where I say the word in German and the kids have to cross off the pictures. My kids ♥love♥ that!! (And get a little competitive). This year, I have been doing more with broader pictures and scenes and have the kids talking about those. I have a ton of those resources to share, but haven’t gotten around to it lately, just because time has been so short! Here is our Summer Words packet (just as an example) — http://homeschoolden.com/2017/05/29/sommer-wortschatz-german-worksheets-activities/ Also, be sure to check out some of the resources we have at this post: Free German Worksheets for Kids… http://homeschoolden.com/2013/07/08/free-german-worksheets-for-kids/ You might find some useful resources there. Oh, and we also used Bobo Siebenschlafer (and the audio CDs) a lot when the kids were younger (and they were still beginners). Those were a fabulous resource for us!! Let me know if you have any other questions or if I can be of help!! ~Liesl
