Celebrate Indigenous Voices

Introduce your little one to a world of color and culture!

Featuring familiar everyday objects, the vibrant artwork and simple language help little ones connect what they see and hear, supporting early learning while gently welcoming them into the rhythms of the Cherokee language.

Learn Colors Three Ways

Each page presents colors in a clear, accessible format:

  • English word

  • Cherokee syllabary

  • Easy-to-follow phonetic pronunciation

This thoughtful approach makes it easy for both children and adults to learn together—even if you’re brand new to Cherokee.
