Cook Island words for things at school

When learning a new language, it is important to start with the basics. This means learning words that we use nearly everyday. This video is great for our children, being able to use Cook Island words for things that we see at school can really support our children in their language journey.
You can use words like 'Peni' instead of 'Pen', or 'Kete Api'i' instead of school bag, and many more.
