Ages & Stages

What is your child up to?

In this section we will discuss what is going on with your child in each of his or her ages and stages. Do you wonder why all of a sudden your child is refusing to speak your language? Or maybe you need some ideas for how to get your child engaged in your language and culture? Each month we will add more information and tips, ideas and suggestions.
