My husband speaks Thai and Spanish; I speak a bit of French. Our dd is enrolled in a tri-lingual immersion program, which will begin in the fall. She is currently speaking French, Spanish and English and can greet others in simple Thai. Between ages 3-6 is the optimum time for language expansion and comprehension; further, small children have no apprehension about formation and pronounciation that is different from their native language. The petite section French teacher is currently teaching her own dd French, (first language), Spanish, Mayan and English.

We feel that such exposure can only benefit.
