And she is ahead of me, thanks to Dora. She’s ben watching all her cartoons in Spanish. But I’m wondering what would be a good way for us to learn together. You have any good ideas. She can read a little, and I dont’ want to go too fast, but she does know when someone is speaking Spanish or English and I can tell that she is very interested.

Question about my 21 month old son learning spanish?

Kym C asked:


Hi All,

My son has a new daycare teacher (its a home daycare) that speaks mainly spanish. She has been teaching my son spanish words. I know that this will be good for him in the long run, but I would rather him wait another year or 2 before he is taught spanish. We speak english only in our house. I just feel like because he is still learning to speak english, the spanish learning should wait. Am I being paranoid? I just don’t want him coming home and pointing at something, and saying what it is in spanish, but not knowing what it is in English. Is it too early for him?
