How we raised bilingual kids: The ultimate 30-minute guide

Описание: How we raised bilingual kids: The ultimate 30-minute guide

In this video I'm going to share how I've successfully raised bilingual children here in France. My kids are 14 and almost 10 and while they were born here in France and have always lived here, they are perfectly bilingual in French and English. Whether you're an expat parent, in a mixed-language relationship, or just want to give your kids the gift of bilingualism, I hope this video will be helpful for you. I'm going to walk you through our journey and share some insights that might help you on your own bilingual parenting adventure.
