I grew up in a predominately Mexican community on the south side of Chicago and with all of the Mexican traditions. Spanish is my native language and what I spoke at home when growing up. I have always wanted my kids to be bilingual and while I try to teach them how to speak it, I question how good of a job I am doing at it. Before I had my first child, I thought raising bilingual children would be a fairly easy task, but I learned quickly that it’s a lot harder than I expected! Other than exposing them to Spanish, I try to teach my kids about their Mexican heritage by having them help me make healthy versions of mi mama’s traditional Mexican recipes, exposing them to Mexican traditions and celebrations like Las Posadas and Feliz Dia de Reyes and reading books about Latino culture with them. I also like to watch “Peep and the Big Wide World” and Little Pim DVDs with them, both of which are series that teach Spanish with animation and entertaining activities. My kids love watching the series and consistently ask me if they can watch them!
