About this listen

 Hey Friends~ Recently, I got a written message from a listener who wrote, ‘My husband is Serbian and speaks Serbian to our son. I speak English, but I don’t speak Serbian well. Our little one is just 17 months and very vocal — but in my expat group, parents worry their bilingual kids might be confused. How young is too young for two languages? And how old is too old for 2 languages?” It’s such a good question — and one that so many families wonder about. In this episode, we’ll look at how babies process two languages, the benefits, milestones, red flags, and what you can do - all geared for the multilingual home. If you would like to send your question, you can email me at hello@thelanguageofplay.com or Leave a voice message here: https://castfeedback.com/play . I may just highlight your question on the show! And remember, when you have the question, it means hundreds of other listeners have the same question, too! You will help many by asking. Always cheering you on!
