Nuevo año 2024

Evan is about to turn 6, and still prefers to speak Spanish while also acquiring English. He’s new thing right now is saying “bruh” hahaha.  Ethan, is following his big brothers foot steps, and while he does prefer Spanish, he is more Spanglish driven then Evan.  What I’m struggling right now is controlling the use of bad words they’re uttering everyday. The ones they prefer are English: “Butt hole” “Booty head” “fucking nuggets” “fucking…” oh my, now that I’m actually writing them out, they sound awful. I have to confess, they get this from me. 

Biliteracidad

I  have been avidly delving into an efficient method to facilitate my bilingual children's acquisition of reading skills in both Spanish and English. While I am deeply committed to nurturing their Spanish literacy, I often ponder whether this may inadvertently impede their progress in English at school. Extensive research into optimal practices for cultivating biliteracy has yielded no tailored approach suitable for my unique circumstance. Given that I am the sole provider of Spanish instruction, residing in an environment predominantly characterized by the use of English, I aspire to strike a harmonious equilibrium in due course. Here’s a clip of the kids learning sounds and numbers in Spanish. Evan is 5years old and Ethan 4.  https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZT8BqbEyT/

Hablame español

When I asked my 4yr old son (Ethan), speak Spanish.  He responds: Ahora mi boca quebró, mami.
