I commented up above. I was in your daughter’s position. She may not know what’s she’s missing now, but please use it as often as you can!
Even little stuff like “grab the ketchup from the fridge” is enormous. I can’t do it with my dad’s language, but I can with Spanish and I do things like pointing at the light:
Me: What’s that
Kid: Light
Me: What’s that in Spanish?
Kid: -shrug-
Me: La luz
It doesn’t have to be a dedicated lesson, just sneak it in. I’ve got three kids under five, I know there’s 50 billion things going on, but man I wish my dad would’ve kept it up with us.
- pavel_lishin 9y ago> I’ve got three kids under five Congratulations and condolences - my single one is pushing me to my limit as a parent and a person :P It's a good suggestion. She knew a few words for common, frequent words - like "give me", and "here, take this". I'm trying to work it back into her vocabulary again; I need to get my wife to start using those terms as well.
