It's hard to believe, but I actually found the awesome playgroup my daughter and I belong to almost a whole year ago! In fact, we're celebrating our first year anniversary next Friday and we couldn't be more excited!

This is how the founder of Bilingual Tots, AnaGloria, describes our playgroup:

Meet friendly local bilingual parents and/or caregivers and tots who need Spanish speaking playdates and interactions. We can talk about our childen and have fun! Come to a Bilingual Tots Meetup to share experiences, find advice, give support and make new friends. All bilingual families and caregivers (nannies, au pairs, grandparents, etc.) are welcome.

In order to belong to the group you should be at least 75% fluent in Spanish. Among the adults Spanish is mostly spoken and when the children are present we only speak Spanish to them. A little Spanglish is ok.

Sometimes, during family meetups, we may speak English to the partners/spouses who are not fluent. Still, only Spanish should be spoken to the children during our meetups.

When we have Moms' Night Out, we are a little more flexible in speaking some English, but the majority of the time we are speaking in Spanish.

If you live in the Denver Metro Area and you'd like to join us, we'd love to have you. Or, if you'd like to know how we got started and how we've been doing it for almost a year, this is the place to ask!
