Read MoreThe topic of raising Bilingual Children is how Mammaprada all began. We don't profess to be experts, we are simply parents hoping to pass on the best of our dual heritage to our children and to give them, in our eyes the benefit of two languages.
Read MoreI can’t believe it’s that time of year again when we all celebrate the brilliant initiative World Book Day! It seems to come around so quickly and this year I have two children old enough to take part!
They will be going to school as a shark and a penguin carrying their favourite books. There has been a bit of backlash this year from people claiming that children just dress up and don’t actually care about the books.
Read MoreRaising bilingual children is not an easy task, but it is something absolutely worth investing the time and effort in. With 2 bilingual and multicultural kids, there are certainly a few things I learned along the way to do and started incorporating early on with my kids to support them in their language learning processes.
Read MoreThis week on Bilingual children I’m sharing a document I’ve created on levels of fluency.
It’s very easy to have in your mind that you would like your child to be bilingual without maybe considering what this really means.

Read MoreThis week in honour of the brilliant initiative World Book Day, we are concentrating on great bilingual books in a variety of languages.
World Book Day is a day for celebrating anyone involved in the creation of books and stories and most importantly it’s a celebration of reading.
UNESCO have recognised it as a worldwide project to promote books and reading, and it's celebrated in over 100 countries all over the world.
The initiative has been running for 21 years and the next one will take place on 1st March 2018.
Read MoreYou may think that I became a language lover when I married a man with a different nationality to me. The truth is my favourite subjects to study at school were always English language and foreign languages. I was fascinated by travel and being able to communicate. After a school trip to Rouen where myself and some other students were insulted in English by German school children (Yes they insulted us in our own language which they could speak pretty well!) I knew I could not cope with only knowing my own language.
Read MoreI'm starting a new series on Mammaprada. Every Wednesday I will give you a little insight into our bilingual learning. What has challenged us and which products we've found useful.
