Hey guys,
This is a video lesson on the colors from my program for children, but even adults giving their first steps in the language can benefit from it. All comments, feedback and suggestions are welcome.
See you in my next post.

I have been waiting for a kids program from you!! Thanks! Is this available now? Two questions on this video…could you indicate why the color brown has two words and when you would use marron versus cafe? Also, my daughters watched this with me and wanted to know why purple was not included. (Pink and purple are their favorite colors of course!)
Hi,
This is a program that we are already using with children who are taking online lessons with us. It will be available as a stand-alone program by March 2012. Regarding the colors, some countries say “marrón”, others prefer “café,” but for no particular reason, really. Regarding “purple”, there is another video on colors that includes “purple” and other colors as well. Just that I try to keep the videos short, usually 10 words each, rather than a longish one of 20 words or more. I used to prefer the longer versions, but they end up being too boring.
Thanks so much for your feedback.
Julio
