Are my children too young to start?

 

The younger the better.

Even if your baby has not even been born you can start by singing lullabies and reading your favourite novel to her.

​

Are my children too old to start?

 

If you have not started bilingualism in your household yet, you will need a lot more of reinforcement from different sources to enabling your family to be successful. Start with small steps: listen to your favourite bands, speak to friends when your child is present, listen to nursery rhymes together, check our articles for more info!

How many languages can my child acquire?

​

As many as you can support, however children’s proficiency will differ from language to language.
 

My child has language delay?

​

If you are concerned about your child's language development, please contact a health professional, a speech and language therapist or your GP.

Remember children acquiring two languages will have a normal threshold for language like their peers. You should be sensible in judging your child’s abilities against monolingual children. Never forget to ‘add’ both language knowledges to have a true account of what your child knows.

 

Do I have enough language skills to support my children?

​

We advise all parents to interact with their children in their mother tongue. The rule of thumb is to speak to your child in the language you are most comfortable with. If you are bilingual yourself you can support your child in both languages.

If you don’t feel very confident using the target language, try to limit your interaction with your child in that language emphasising phrases or words you know.

Meanwhile increase interactions in the language you are more confident in, as long as your child is receiving input from the environment, school, and community bilingualism should happen naturally.

​

My child speaks only in one language although I support him with two?

 

Please read our tips or post on “How to raise truly bilingual children”.
