App of the Week – Jasmine’s Playroom

Published On March 19, 2016 | By Tom Huskerson | App of the Week

Jasmine's PlayroomEducating your children is a parent’s prime responsibility after food and clothing. Our children are growing up in a smaller and more multi-cultural world. Speaking a second language can give black children a key advantage in school and eventually the job market. That is why Jasmine’s Playroom is the App of the Week.

Jasmine’s Playroom is a Spanish language learning app for children. Learning a second language can be fun and this app sparks your child’s interest by making it fun and easy. The app is designed to engage the child in a story that immerses them in the language.

The child is invited into the story by Jasmine and her mother, characters in the story. Your child sees how the mother and child interact before and after each lesson. Lesson’s include learning Spanish alphabet sounds, vocabulary, number and colors.

Too often learning apps are nothing more than advertising vehicles aimed at our children, not so with Jasmine’s Playroom. Parents can rest easy because the app is advertising free and there are no in app purchases.
