Russian language and culture textbooks/resources for children

Wed Feb 27 14:34:43 UTC 2013

Dear Katia, 

You can find a big selection of materials on ilearnrussian.com. I have bought several books there both for my American and Russian (heritage speakers) students, and my own children. 
There is also a very fun book for kids called "My First Thousand Words in Russian": 
http://www.amazon.com/Thousand-Russian-Usborne-English-Edition/dp/0860207692 
 It is not a textbook, it is more of a pictionary for kids, but the illustrations are fantastic, I've used it in several of my classes, and my kids love it. 

And this one is a textbook, specifically for kids: http://www.amazon.com/First-Russian-Phrases-Another-Language/dp/1404877401

Best,

Dear Colleagues,

Can anyone recommend good Russian language and culture textbooks for teaching children of elementary, middle and high school age who are English speakers? If there are any other materials available (readers, bilingual books, picture dictionaries, board games, curricula) that can be used for teaching kids, any info about such resources will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advnace!

Best to everyone,
