The Latin for Children: Primer A is engaging, incremental, creative and filled with clear grammatical explanations, illustrations, exercises, tests, and a sizable and useful reference section. The text comes with a plethora of mnemonic aids (songs, chants) that enable students to learn vocabulary (over 240 of the most frequently occurring words) and grammar with ease and delight. The text is graphically engaging, featuring a crisp, classical look professionally designed.

My seven-year-old sons (second grade) and I are just finishing up with this text (version 3.2) and will be moving on to Primer B. While some other reviewers mentioned significant typos and other errors in Primer A, this version is virtually free of errors (I found three grammatically incorrect English sentences and two more Latin vocabulary omissions which were mentioned on the publisher's website).I spent a significant amount of time researching Latin programs and have been extremely pleased with this text. I wanted to give my sons a solid foundation in classical Latin (as opposed to an ecclesiastical emphasis) and this program fits the bill. Latin for Children is a traditional grammar (i.e. "parts to whole") approach that is incremental and systematic, rigorous but not overwhelming for the elementary-aged child (it should be noted that while this text is "for children", it is perfectly appropriate to use with older students and adults--there is nothing cutesy or childish about this book). Not only will your child learn Latin grammar, he/she will also develop a strong English vocabulary based Latin derivatives and understand English grammar as never before. This, after all, is one of the main reasons for studying Latin. While many modern Latin texts emphasize a reading or "living language"/ "whole to parts" approach, these methods, while "fun" at some level, miss the mark. Such programs should be used as supplements to a thorough, grammar-based program, not the other way around.
