How to talk about this flag
Guadeloupe sits in North America, with Basse-Terre as its capital city. When your child asks about it — usually because they spotted it in the news, on a cricket jersey, or in a film — the flag's colours are the easiest hook. Point at one colour, say where it sits on the flag, and let them describe what they see before you add the names.
People in Guadeloupe speak French. If your child speaks one of these at home, this is a quick way to connect their day-to-day language to a place on the map.
One tip: kids remember flags faster when they own them. Ask which colour is their favourite on this one — they'll come back to it.
