Quest Stories has changed websites, and they may have gone out of business. If I find them, I will update the information below.
Quest Stories makes beautiful personalized books to celebrate a child’s birthday. They are working on a Spanish edition of the book now. In the meantime, if you have a little Spanish speaker who will be celebrating a birthday, use Quest Stories free printable birthday poster to encourage lots of language. This is such a great idea for getting more Spanish into a birthday celebration!
The printable birthday poster has lots of fun characters with conversation bubbles. Friends and family can write in typical birthday wishes in Spanish: feliz cumpleaños, feliz día, felicidades.
Using the Printable Birthday Poster with Spanish Learners
With kids learning Spanish you can also use the poster in other ways.
- You can choose a theme to focus the vocabulary –
- an animal that they would like to give as a birthday gift,
- an activity they want to do with the birthday child
- a place they would like to go together
- a food they would like bring to the party
- what they are wearing/would wear to the party
- Leave names off and let the birthday child guess who filled in each bubble
- Write in lines of Las mañanitas or another Spanish birthday song
- Include time for kids to read aloud what they wrote. It is good speaking practice!
- Hang the poster and revisit the birthday wishes for more language practice. Kids love reading what their friends wrote!
