The ideal time to start with English

The ideal beginning is at the beginning, that is, from the birth of the child. Since the child begins his life outside the mother's womb, his brain is collecting information from the world in which he lives to be able to organize himself and prepare himself for the different situations that he will have to live. During the first 10 months of life, the child's brain will collect the corresponding information to be able to separate the noises, sounds and voices, in the case of bilingualism, they will know that in the world there are different ways of speaking, and even if they do not understand the majority of what they are told, their brain is preparing to be able to understand in different ways activa, activating another part of the brain, not just one.This indicates that in the first phase of bilingualism, we must introduce the baby in a natural way in English. The best thing is that a family member who has a lot of contact with the baby always speaks to them in English. In this phase, the advantage is that the quality in English is not the most important, since the child is not paying any attention to the composition of the sentences or the correct pronunciation. We can also rely on audiovisual material, although it will never be as effective as

We can use videos aimed at learning some specific topics and follow the dances for us to pay attention while listening to body parts, colors ...Gesture is one of the most important parts in the learning of any baby, we must apply it in all the phases of learning. Babies until they begin to understand have very few weapons to understand the people around them, the strongest is the relationship, the child learns that "

car" is a car when for a few timeswe have repeated the word " car 'when we were teaching him a toy car, with a bit of intelligence, or even imitating the sounds that cars make. A study by Harvard University, which took a large number of first-time parents, and after a follow-up of years, showed that the children who had started talking before were the most expressive parents of the group.
