Who is it for?
Parents raising their children in a bilingual or multilingual environment who want to ensure that Hungarian becomes a living language at home — not just a passive understanding.
Why should I teach my child Hungarian?
Raising a bilingual child offers lifelong advantages. Speaking two languages strengthens memory, problem-solving, and communication skills. It helps children become more flexible thinkers and more open to different cultures.
Teaching your child Hungarian means more than preserving a language — it’s passing on identity, roots, and emotional connection. It allows your child to communicate with grandparents and relatives, understand Hungarian stories and traditions, and feel proud of their heritage while confidently moving in an international world.
When you teach your child Hungarian, you give them a bridge to their roots, their grandparents, and their family’s stories.
Bilingual children grow up with open hearts and curious minds. They move easily between worlds, carrying both confidence and connection. Even far from Hungary, your child can belong to two worlds — and thrive in both.

How can SzóKiMondóka help?
Onset of Speech
The child will recognize and pronounce the words based on the pictures of the word cards. Later, you can turn the cards around to show the word itself. The same words appear highlighted in the books, and your child will be quick to recognize the word in the story, which will start them on the path to reading!
Speech Development
Based on the preface of our books, you can discuss in advance what the story will be about. And your child can join in reading the books made with Picture Layout™. You can also discuss the stories using the questions on the boards in the book.
Vocabulary
János Lackfi is a brilliant writer who virtuously twists and turns the Hungarian language. His funny wordplay will develop your vocabulary – just click on the picture and you will surely learn something about the nose, ears, nosebleeds and lying!
Self esteem
The answers to your questions are praised, which reinforces your child’s belief that they are clever and smart. As their speech develops, their expressive skills also develop, so they will express their thoughts more confidently and even more sophisticatedly.
Prep for School
In only 10-15 minutes a day you will create a learning routine that will be useful during everyday life in kindergarten and school.
Environmetal Education
Loving and protecting nature is important even at a young age! Through stories and games, your child will learn about their environment and the basics of environmental protection.
Literacy
If you give your child a book at a young age (even if you actually read it yourself), the world of letters and words will become natural to them. Thanks to Picture Layout™, they can get involved in reading, first recognizing the pictures, then the words, and later the letters, without having to be taught separately.
Quality Time
Every element of the SzóKiMondóka program is playful, fun, and shared times, guaranteed to bring lots of conversation and laughter. These special moments will be treasured by every member of the family.

About US
My Story
Holding my firstborn in our New York apartment, living in a mixed marriage (my husband is American), I already knew that it wouldn’t be enough to just speak Hungarian to my child.
I wanted him not only to hear the words, but also to see them, act out their meaning, say them aloud, and learn the songs and rhymes connected to them. I aimed to involve all of his senses in the learning process.
I kept experimenting and playing with her until the methodology of SzóKiMondóka™ was born — a program that guides children from their first words all the way to independent reading. Over time, the full toolkit of SzóKiMondóka™ was also developed.

“I believe that people don’t meet by chance in the digital world. When something truly matters to you, life sends you signs — you just have to notice them! That’s exactly what happened this time.I spend a lot of time with my 10-year-old twin grandchildren — we live in southern England. Even though I’ve been speaking Hungarian to them since birth, they understand less and less of it. I knew I needed help from a professional — and that’s when Viola appeared. I saw her ad on Facebook.As soon as I saw the high-quality education that SzóKiMondóka offers, I knew this was the answer for our children! My 2-year-old granddaughter might even surpass her two older brothers — with this method, she’s picking up Hungarian in no time.Thank you for this opportunity!”— Ilona Dedics, UK
“We finally started using SzóKiMondóka, and both of us absolutely love it. I’m completely amazed by its impact — my daughter enjoys it so much, especially how she places the cards next to the book.
Even our little 5-month-old son is getting involved — I already show him the picture side of the cards.
We’re all having a great time together.
I’m so glad I found you. I already regret not ordering the full package right away, but I’ll definitely get around to that too.
Wishing you many joyful and creative days ahead!”
— Cecília Linqvist, Switzerland
“Zente really loves the cards. Even when he’s watching the DVD, he surrounds himself with them… Often, he flips the game around and starts asking me: ‘Mom, what’s this?’ — and I have to say what’s on the card. Sometimes I get it wrong on purpose, and he corrects me — ‘Oh no, Mom, that’s not right! This is the…’
That’s how he plays. Today, for example, when he woke up, he brought the little book over. We read from it. Not every page — just the ones with the illustrations he finds interesting. Like the one where the little boy shows his age with his fingers, the birthday cake page, the purple giraffe… and a few more. He asked questions, then told the story back in his own little way.
It was the first time this happened — with this book. George thought about filming it, but we were still in our pajamas, and I said we should at least brush our hair first and so on.”
— Ágota Hódi, fashion designer, Los Angeles
FAQ
Frequently Asked
My child understands Hungarian but answers in another language. Will this help?
Absolutely. Our materials are designed to gently encourage active speaking through repeated exposure, playful repetition, and thematic engagement. Many parents see results within weeks!
We don’t have much time during the week. Will we manage?
Yes! The program is built for 10–15 minutes a day, and even if you miss a few days, the rhythm is easy to pick back up.
Do I need to be a teacher or fluent in Hungarian myself?
You don’t need to be a teacher, but speaking Hungarian is important. Our Parental Guide and coaching will help you step by step. You’ll learn alongside your child and grow confident together.
What if my child is already in school or learning another language?
That’s very common for families abroad. Our materials blend easily with other routines, and they focus on natural, joyful language acquisition — not pressure or memorization.
