Language Teachers love FabuLingua! The new version of FabuLingua is based on the same patented, award-winning, story-based learning method that has always delighted educators. But now it’s set in a mobile game that will take your child’s language learning to a whole new level!

At FabuLingua, we are creating the best digital solution for kids to learn Spanish, and we are committed to delivering an ever-improving language learning experience for your child.

What is FabuLingua?

FabuLingua is a beautiful language-learning mobile game for kids based on the latest advancements in the science of second language acquisition. We combine these educational and scientific insights with mobile gaming to teach your child Spanish (and other languages coming soon!) in a way that is fun, interactive, comprehensible and compelling.

FabuLingua is designed for children 2-10 years old.

Imagine if while your kids are playing a mobile game, they could also be learning a new language…

How does FabuLingua Work?

The FabuLingua app is a platform of Comprehensible Input designed to be compelling to children. Our interactive stories are set in a beautiful mobile game. We use our patented and award-winning methodology to turn children’s stories and gameplay into vast amounts of comprehensible input for kids.

The outcome? We teach your child a new language in a way that feels like a game rather than a lesson (we call it ‘Invisible Learning’).

Our app engages children on multiple sensory levels, meaning that they see, read, listen and speak in the language they are learning (as well as actively engage the sense of touch!) so that they can more easily progress through the language acquisition process.

FabuLingua was voted the best new technology to teach kids Spanish.

What are the Benefits of Learning a Second Language?

There are countless benefits to learning a second language! These include include improved brain development, improved social-emotional skills and cultural awareness, as well as additional job opportunities for bilingual speakers when they become adults!

To learn more about the research behind these claims, check out our two blog posts “Why “Bilingual is Better: bilingualism, language and cognition”, which explores the cognitive and educational benefits and “The Benefits of Learning a Second Language as a Child” which dives more into the sociocultural and economic benefits.

Why Should You Teach Your Child a Second Language with FabuLingua?

FabuLingua is based on the science of language learning. Academics understand how human brains learn languages, and yet (remarkably!) most digital language learning tools are based on traditional output-oriented teaching methods which science has shown to be ineffective.

FabuLingua simplifies the entire language teaching process for parents (and teachers, too!), especially those who don’t already speak the target language. Language-learning happens effortlessly, all in the palm of their hands - on their favorite device.

They will be playing a mobile game while they happily learn a new language. If that doesn’t sound like a win-win, what does?

WELL DONE, FABULINGUA!

★★★★★

We homeschool in Spanish/English. I so appreciate that this app doesn’t only read to the kids but encourages mastery of a story (and the included vocab) by having the ultimate goal of the child recording their own voice reading the story for themselves. Well done, FabuLingua!

A GAME CHANGER

★★★★★

I have wanted to get my three kids to learn Spanish, but struggled to find the hook until we found this. The kids love the stories, love the games and love hearing themselves reading the stories! The stories are original, quirky and fun. The illustrations are gorgeous! There is something about how the translations are broken up... they are like a quiet subliminal voice that illuminates but doesn’t get in the way of the joy of the story!

MY SON IS NOW HOOKED ON FABULINGUA

★★★★★

Perfect for kids who are young readers. Fabulingua is perfect for our daughter who is learning to read because she can follow along while reading and hearing both the Spanish and English translation. Older kids will learn from it too. It’s an engaging way to learn a langauge!

Spanish Learning for Homeschoolers (& Microschools!)

FABULINGUA IS THE PERFECT TOOL TO TEACH YOUR KID SPANISH AT HOME!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Smart, detailed, and highly engaging!

The lessons are well-paced, and children of a variety of ages have opportunities to uncover more sophistication in all of the embedded vocabulary and usage hidden through the program. There are some games to check on your child’s overall comprehension in each lesson. And my daughter really enjoys the feature where she can practice her oral skills and record herself reading the stories in small chunks following the narrator. The story narrator has a clear voice with a lovely pronunciation that seems to inspire my daughter to perfect her accent. The stories are very sweet with great illustrations and animations, and my daughter often laughs out loud at some of the characters and occurrences in the stories as she is learning. I highly recommend this educational app for children in a wide age range. This would also be a fantastic app for homeschoolers looking to incorporate Spanish into their curriculum.
