It's good to watch TV or listen to the radio or read children's books in the language you're learning.

Le Petit Nicolas is brilliant (and one of the reasons both I and Now a Man loved learning French)

When I have learned a bit more than man, woman, boy, girl, bread and water I'll try watching some of the TV programmes for very young children on the Irish language TV station. At the moment I am finding it all very, very hard.

I'm currently working with a French translator on some vaguely educational children's books for the French Canadian market. Quite timely!

I'm finding it useful to keep checking back and as soon as a grey bar shows do the word strengthening exercise - it does get things into our head much more.
