A mi chiquito le encantan ciertas canciones en inglés que aprende en el story time, cuando llegamos a la casa yo las adapto y las canto para el en español tradando de mostrarle siempre imagenes relacionadas con el tema. También trato de dar gracias por cosas nuevas y distintas cada noche cuando hacemos la oración antes de dormir. En cuanto a las apps, trato de participar con el y si, por ejemplo, hay imágenes de frutas o verduras que tenga en casa, siempre lo invito a abrir el refrigerador, buscar el tomate, o la zanahoria, y verlo, tocarlo, y luego le muestro y le indico que es lo mismo que ve en el iPad.

I will point then something and ask, how does mum call this? and dad? It became a game and it helped us to increase the vocabulary in both languages. Further I would like to comment that we do read books that are intended for older children. They cannot manage to read them themselves but they can understand the story when read and come in contact with many new words that are not used in books for smaller kids. For example, I am reading out loud “charlie and the chocolate factory” for my 5 year old twins.

Our first baby is coming in a few months and I’m all ears when it comes to navigating the two languages and two cultures! Thanks Roaxana!
