Bilingual children

Would you like to raise your child to be Bilingual? The benefits are significant. Once you decide on the 2nd language this book will show you how, help them practice and how to overcome obstacles. What really stood out for me was there are different approaches to teaching if you don't know the leaguer yourself or are a single parent. Great book of this is your desire.

An Essential Book!

I believe that everyone should read this book! It is completely essential, especially in this day and age. I have a son who just turned 9 years old and before he was born I promised myself that I would teach him Spanish so he can be bilingual. Of course, I fell off the wagon and didn’t really follow through, as I am the only one in the family who speaks Spanish. However, I was encouraged after listening to this book! The author states that kids can become easily fluent if they start before the age of 10, so all is not lost! I literally got a resurge of encouragement to make this happen for my son!

As the author states, the world needs more people who can speak different languages. In addition to the multi lingual brain being extremely powerful, it also allows us to have more of a connection and understanding of the people around us.

I commend the author and his wife for teaching their children both French and English from birth! This gift they are giving to their children is priceless. I pray to be able to give this same gift to my son.

Beautiful book! And thanks so much for giving us a list of the best apps for language learning! I believe I’ll go with Babble for my son and see how that works. Really appreciate all of this information !!! 4 thumbs up!

Multilingual Kids!

Wow, i didn't know we needed this audio book so badly! The author has done a great job in highlighting the intellect, problem solving skills of a child who's bilingual. Their are great strategies for parents to start teaching their child multiple languages so that they are confident, contented and powerful! The author clarifies all the myths people have come up with learning multiple languages. I really recommend this book for parents who are really into teaching their child multiple languages that help them in their life a multiple times.

Learning Languages is Fun and Doable!

Have you ever wished you could teach your child another language? Have you ever wished you could speak a second (or third) language? Does the thought of language-learning seem overwhelming or intimidating? Please listen to this book! It will change your mind and your life, and your child’s future in the best possible way.

Daniel O’Hern shares a wealth of personal experience, practical tips and perspective adjustments about language-learning. His book will help you overcome any hurdle that is keeping you from jumping into the adventure of raising bilingual children.

I grew up monolingual, to monolingual parents. Despite loving high school Spanish, I never had real-world opportunities to practice, so retention was limited. I reached fluency in Portuguese very quickly as an adult, through immersion in Brazilian culture. Later I studied linguistics, then learned an indigenous Brazilian language. All these experiences convinced me that anyone who goes through life speaking only one language is missing out on so much. As this book emphasizes, speaking at least two languages opens up countless doors to new relationships, cultural experiences, mental and emotional benefits, job opportunities, and fun!

Yes, for both children and adults, language-learning is supposed to be fun! O’Hern suggests so many ideas of how to make this a reality. He also does a great job of reminding us that every family is different, and every context is different. So he doesn’t try to tell you which language you should have your child learn or exactly how to make it happen. Instead, he shares many specific scenarios and factors to consider as you figure out the language that will serve your child best or be the easiest to learn, or that makes the most sense based on your family’s background. It is so helpful and affirming to hear how to think through and evaluate our options, and to be assured that no matter what language we choose, growing up bilingual will be a wonderful gift to our children!

Ever since my first days immersed in Portuguese, I felt that my brain was being stretched in new ways. It seemed really hard and intense, yet healthy and invigorating, like the mental equivalent of that perfect physical workout, in which you go beyond your normal limits, but without injury, and prove you can do more than you ever dreamed. Thanks to the scientific explanation in this book, I now understand why language learning feels that way, and that it truly is a really positive thing for brain health.

One tiny warning, though! Listening to this book might get you so excited about connecting with a new language that you find yourself sidetracked from your other plans for the day because you can’t wait another minute to start building a personalized language-learning strategy and planning how your family can prepare for and engage our multilingual world! Your children will be so grateful to you for taking this step and you will look back at this decision as one of the best you’ve ever made. So buy this book and let the author be one of your friends and advisors on the journey. He speaks with knowledge of the subject and passion for culture and customs, children, family relationships, and successful learning.

Great resource for ANY parent -- Highly Recommend!

This was an excellent audiobook for any parent. For us English-speaking-only parents, we're really doing a disservice to our children for their futures.
