How do we raise a baby to become bilingual or know multiple languages

Raising children at all is difficult work and teaching them can be a whole other story completely which is why Levana’s Human Development is providing family’s these life hacks toward teaching young children aged newborn to 12 months of age how to speak and remember multiple languages.

Languge Development in Early Childhood Steps:

Oral Language: When handling a young child and teaching them a language needs a strong predictor of vocabulary and literary. Allowing children to watch your mouth and physically gain a view of how your creating these words before applying meaning stimulates the early mind into memory. Young children are extreme vulnerable to learning forms of communication at younger stages of there development. The more children hear a language directed at them personally, the more likely they’ll develop the idea of speech at later points of languages development making it easier to understand and process multiple languages.

Literacy and Print concepts

Children’s exposure to print during the early childhood stages is significantly correlated to literacy development. Levana’s Human Development have written extensively about the importance of creating print-rich environments within classrooms across the nation. Children have a great exposure ability to books, online articles and activities all within the same language, where reading is essential in the classroom or at home although having books in the classroom or household which contains various languages can open new doors to language development in early childhood education.

Teachers are advised to have a book area for early childhood although asking if they have books related to multiple languages is a good question to be asking.

Early Learning Imperatives

From the time of conception to the first day of kindergarten, development proceeds at a pace quicker than most are typically aware. Although there have been longstanding debates about how much The Early years really matter in the larger scheme of lifelong development, what matters is the ability to figure out the whole concept than just bits and pieces in terms of providing quality meterial.

Children come into the world biologically programmed to learn. Everything they do, every interaction they have with a person or object and everything they see, hear, smell, taste or touch is a source of stimulation or discovery of learning to the early learner. From the very beginning, a healthy child is an active participant in her or his own learning: exploring the environment, responding, communicating, cultural-exposer, physical, mental, emotional activities and in relatively short time, constructing ideas and theories about how the world works. During the first five years of life, tremendous growth occurs in intellectual, linguistic, sensory, social, emotional and physical competence. Levana’s Human Development has added two newly formed competences called “Etiquette” and “Visceral”, both Early Competences that undergird the future of learning.

It is during this period that the basic groundwork is laid for adolescent and adult dispositions and skills in every development domain.

Teaching the spirit of Christmas to early learners

Achieve The Early Dream Day Care Center is teaching the spirit of Christmas to early learners:

My goal was to bring back more literary tools for early child development, yet since the children in our care are so young I’m focusing this activity mainly on fine motor skills, language/speech and being able to identify differences.

The activity was formed off the idea of the “secret santa” activity. While children are making crafts and gifts for there loved ones, we created a chart where children can keep track of how many objects they have created and who they want to give them too. While also teaching them the spirit of giving for the hoildays.

A child within a positive environment will contribute to their ability to benefit from learning exposures. A child who is healthy is fully capable of taking advantage of an opportunity to learn and focus more clearly when in positive environments. Confidence, Open-minded discussions and multiple forms of explanation will effectively educate young minds for positive behavior and they’re social development. Promoting positive social skills in early learners by intergrating the spirit of Christmas. Simple discussion and physical objects for visual use, are the best way for early childhood to learn social and verbal skills. By teaching the…
