I can totally relate how frustrating it can get at times trying to make it a priority to speak and teach Spanish to your little one when you are only surrounded by English. But like many mami’s already mentioned here there are plenty or resources online. Since it is hard for me to find friends that only speak Spanish and even harder to find those that have kids that speak Spanish I have then surrounded my home and family with books, movies, CD’s, music and so much more that is in Spanish. I admit I have made the same mistake as you as to speaking English at times with the kids, but now I make it an emphasis to just focus on Spanish. In the next week I will be visiting my parents and thought they can and do speak English I have asked them to only speak Spanish to the kids. I think this time (even if little) will help them see the use of language not just from mami, but from the abuelitos tambien.

p.s. one thing I try as well is change the language setting to Spanish on any of his favorite movies. Like Peter Pan.

If you ever need or want someone to converse with or even try some video conference, let me know. My son is 3 and a I have 17 month old baby girl. You can contact me through my blog at http://myfamily-saborcajeta.blogspot.com

Buena suerte,
Lisa Renata

I just wanted to share something that I’ve been doing with my kids. It’s having a Spanish time–time set aside each day where you and your children have fun playing games, reading stories, and interacting in Spanish. And the time doesn’t have to be long at first, 15 minutes then increase the time as your children become more receptive.

In my situation, my husband and I are English speakers (no Spanish relatives or anything like that), so we’re doing our best to create Spanish experiences for our children in our home.

Setting up a Spanish time helps take the edge off of trying to speak Spanish only to them all day or for even half of a day. And it’s a time the children look forward to because we’re having fun.

Hope this helps.
