    Oh, geez. The language question. See, it’s like this. My husband is a first generation American, so my son learns Flemish and Italian along with English. My father is also a first generation American, so he also gets to learn German. And I had a French minor in college.

    Add in Kai-Lan and Dora and my kid is the FBI’s dream in about 20 years.

    My daughter has been exposed to some Spanish. I am able to speak it fairly well (although I am not a native speaker!) and I try to speak to her in Spanish and expose her to television programs and books in Spanish.

    I sing to my two month old little guy in Spanish.
    My husband grew up in Venezuela, so I’d like our children
    to learn to speak Spanish as they grow. 🙂

    We have a 4 year old and two 2 year olds. We have not taught anything formally to them but have worked on Sign Language (ASL)-which I guess isn’t really a foreign language, Spanish and some Amharic (spoken in Ethiopia). We are working with one of our two year olds on English…for him, coming from Ethiopia it’s his third language that he’s been exposed to-so I guess it’s foreign to him. 🙂

    My littles are exposed to foreign languages on a daily basis. We live in one of the most diverse neighborhoods in the United States and hear everything from Spanish to Korean to icelandic.

    My kids have been exposed to Spanish. My husband and I speak a little as well as my grandparents.

    Hmmm…small bits of lots of languages! We have lived in Korea for the past 2 years, so they were immersed in it, but speak very little. They have visited China, Japan, & Thailand, but again, it’s just the basics of each language to be polite! This would be awesome!!

    my kids haven’t been exposed to another language, yet, but my 8 year old (we homeschool) is totally ready. she can’t decide between Spanish and French, but is leaning towards Spanish because she loves the way it sounds!
