It is October, your lesson plan might include fall, Halloween or Día de Muertos themed units. There are so many books out there, but we know that some of them might have complex vocabulary or be too lengthy for your little ones. Check this curated list of books your can use during October with your preschool Spanish classes.

Día de Muertos
There are SO MANY books about Día de Muertos, but we know that only a few can be used with our preschoolers (especially if you see them 30 minutes a week, like me). Check this curated list of books you can include to review common concepts like colors, feelings and more.
La Catrina: Los Colores by Citali Reyes
This book is a great addition to your morning routine to review colors. This book featuring colorful catrinas could be easily added to review colores in your lessons.

Mi Ofrenda by Mariana Galvez
This book is wonderful for students to review colors but also to explore items and the meaning of an altar. Join little Amelia and help her find everything she needs for her altar.
