APP
OF THE
DAY
Canticos Bilingual Preschool
Fun Early Learning Games
Geared toward kids ages 2 to 5, this bilingual learning app uses nursery rhymes, songs, and games to teach little ones about language and Latin culture.
What we love: The animated videos featuring nursery rhymes from around the Spanish-speaking world. Parents can choose to have the app’s lively activities—hosted by the adorable Ricky, Kiki, and Nicky Chickie—delivered in English, Spanish, or both.
Quick tip: Canticos is full of interactive surprises. Tap around to find coloring books and open candy jars, or dive into the closet to change up your character’s wardrobe. Games and activities are available to download, so kids can learn while offline.
Meet the creator: A mother of two, Susie Jaramillo created Canticos in 2016 when she realized the songs and stories of her childhood in Venezuela weren’t available in U.S. bookstores and libraries. Her mission is to not only raise her own children to love their culture and heritage but also inspire and teach a new generation of bilingual learners.
