Question of the Month

Is my 3 year old too young to start to learn a second language?

NO! Three years old is the perfect time for children to begin a second language. Babies learn language simply by listening to their parents for a year. Young children can pick up a second language just as easily through games, songs, stories and play. A young child learns through experiences.

The brain actually grows new connections to accommodate these experiences, so exposure to a new language as a toddler makes that second language easier to acquire than for older children or adults. When children wait until high school to start studying a foreign language, the job is much harder. Their brains are now "hard wired"; the learning windows for developing any complex cognitive system, including language, have closed. So, by all means begin your child's second language acquisition now!
