It may happen in many cases where either of parents would be a native of other country with different language spoken. Now with kids being raised by with their native languages may stray their language that parents used. Teaching them with native language will help them to preserve and even improve family ties; understand own culture and rather enjoy two different cultures together – learning something more unique to execute; isn’t it nice!

I too was married to a Latino man who defaulted to English in our home daily. IF (and I know it’s a BIG IF) you can convince him to focus on Spanish only with your daughter, she will begin to willingly speak more in Spanish.

The sites that Lori mentioned – focusing only on Spanish – would provide a great incentive for your daughter. I would suggest finding a local moms group who speak in Spanish and also seek to maintain that language thus requiring Spanish-only during playtime.

Best to you amiga – it can work! And best part is her little brain is being wired for later language learning even if she’s not verbalizing as much as you wish she would in Spanish.
