Je spreekt thuis verschillende talen? Dat is goed voor je kind!

In de context van migratie en meertaligheid hebben ouders vaak behoefte aan informele steun bij de opvoeding van hun kinderen.

Hoe erg is een buitenlands accent?

The amazing baby brain says ‘pas de lème’ with bilingualism

The Conversation, 29 July 2019 People often say that babies are like little sponges — with their ability to soak up language quickly and easily. Yet much of the early research on language acquisition has focused on young infants learning only one language.

Meertaligheid niet lastig voor jonge kinderen

Vroeg, Kennisplatform voor Jonge Kind, 29 april 2019 Ten onrechte wordt vaak gedacht dat meertaligheid lastig is voor jonge kinderen. Veelal geldt juist het tegenovergestelde. Een meertalig kind leert niet alleen op latere leeftijd gemakkelijker nieuwe talen, maar kunnen hier ook in sociaal opzicht mee gebaat zijn.
