My son, adopted from Guatemala, goes to a daycare where they only speak Spanish to the kids, except at certain points during the day where they teach colors, body parts etc in English.

At 20 months, he definitely understands both languages and, although he seems to have far more English vocabulary than Spanish right now, does say a few things in Spanish too.

The younger you start exposing kids to another language, the better it is for them.
