Unlike in English, in Spanish vowels only have one phonetic sound. English has at least 11 vowel sounds -and even more, depending on the dialect- while Spanish has only 5. This means you can learn how to pronounce words in Spanish even if you don’t fully know how to speak the language. For example, in English the words “apple” and “able” both start with the letter A but the way you pronounce this letter in these two words is not the same. This does not happen in Spanish, as a result, teaching your children how to pronounce the vowels in Spanish at an early age and constantly reading in Spanish can help them have less of an accent in the future.

At Bilingual Birdies St. Louis we teach through music, dance, and puppetry. Each class we focus on 15 new vocabulary words to take children on a bilingual adventure to celebrate diversity! 🐣🧡

Absolutely not! Research shows that learning a second language at a young age does not negatively impact a child’s ability to learn their native language. Children are able to learn two languages at the same pace as other children who are learning only one language 🧡🐣⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
They will be learning English in school and at home, as a result, learning a second language will not impact their ability to speak English at an early age. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Research shows that the earlier a child starts learning a second language the better. Some experts say that second language acquisition skills peak at or before the age of 6 or 7 🤓⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
😱 WOW, did you know that? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
At Bilingual Birdies St. Louis we know how important it is to start the second language learning journey at a young age. That is why our program is designed for children under the age of 6. The best part, we make it fun and enjoyable for your little one to embark in this amazing journey full of benefits 🐥⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
