SpanglishBaby Talks With Yogi Bear, Boo Boo and Ranger Smith!
SpanglishBaby was invited to interview actor Tom Cavanagh to talk about his recent role as Ranger Smith in this season´s most-anticipated animated film in 3D, Yogi Bear.

Our Trilingual Adventures with Little Pim: The Future + {Giveaway}
So we’ve come to the end of our trilingual adventures with Little Pim. For the last three months, I’ve been documenting my daughter’s progress learning her third language through progress report posts and vlogs featuring Skype consultations with Little Pim’s founder, Julia Pimsleur Levine.

So, as soon as she saw the Blu-ray/DVD combo pack cover she wanted me toRead More ...
Bienvenidos to SpanglishBaby!

Two professional, successful, bilingual Latina amigas became mothers and had nowhere to turn for answers to their burning questions about how to raise their daughters not only to speak both their languages, Spanish and English, but also to be very proud of their Latino raíces.

Laura Posada on Raising Bilingual, Bicultural and Healthy Kids
Last week I was invited by McDonald’s to a First Taste event to be one of the first to try a new addition to their breakfast menu: Fruit & Maple Oatmeal and McCafe Caramel Mocha. Honestly, I’m not a big fan of overindulgent mocha coffee drinks, but I am huge on freshly prepared oatmeal, especially if it’s loaded with fruits, cranberries, raisins and brown sugar. I was pleasantly surprised to find out that starting January 3rd, 2011 this oatmeal, preparedRead More ...
