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.
If you think long and hard about how you would like your child to use a language; where they will use it? How well they will speak it? This will help you decide how much learning and effort needs to go into the process.

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 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. There will be some interviews with others raising bilingual children, an expert in the subject or a creator of a product or service which helps us all in raising our children bilingually.
