Usborne First Thousand Words (various languages)

Usborne First Thousand Words is a series of large format picture word books that introduce about one thousand everyday terms in languages such as English, French, Spanish, German, and Mandarin. Each spread shows a bustling scene with dozens of labeled objects, plus a word list at the back for reference. The detailed artwork invites children to point, name, and play seek and find games, making vocabulary practice feel like exploration rather than drill. Families use these books for early language exposure, bilingual labeling around the house, and as a quiet activity that still builds language skills for preschool and early elementary ages.
