  • Useful and interesting information!

    I’m so glad that Olena took the time to create a podcast about bilingual kids! I’m currently raising a bilingual 3 year old and I’m slowing adding a third language. The two minority languages are my territory as my husband speaks the majority language and it’s hard to find the right balance. I often doubt my decisions but listening to this podcast is a reminder of how important it is to pass on the gift of bilingualism to our children !

  • Real world advice

    I very much enjoyed listening to the why your child won’t answer back in minority language episode (31). Although I thought I was doing everything right, this episode made me realize just how much more we could do for us and our children to bring the minority language into focus. Thanks!!!

  • Good for Future

    My husband and I don't currently have children but I stumbled we do plan to live internationally in the coming years and, if we do children, plan to raise them with exposure to other countries and languages. I'm trying to learn a second language as an adult and am really wishing I would've have exposed to multiple languages when I was younger and it would've been easier to pick up. This is a GREAT show for anyone currently going through this with their children.
