Our first born was only exposed to a second language (Mandarin) when he was about 18 months. I think that's a mistake because he speaks Mandarin like an Englishman who just got to China.
For our second, we're starting early and bombarding her with languages - Mandarin from my wife, English and other Chinese dialects from me, Singlish from my parents, Indonesian from her nanny, Korean from the kids at the playground, French and Spanish from TV.
Maybe she'll turn out like this lady:

I believe good ideas. I for my part I teach my baby (1yr and a half) verse. The method I follow is: I read the verse, not very long (beginning with short verses), then repeat it twice and I represent, this makes it more fun to memorize and learn fast. Each verse is represented, for example, Revelation 4:20 "I'm at the door and knock, if anyone hears my voice and opens the door to enter and dine with him and me" is the representation that I touched the door with my hand and say "Nock Nock" the third day and she knows it and does so by itself. It is also very nice and he learned to play when the doors are closed to open it.

Make sure you remove the crank, crank shaft, front sprocket, chain, chain guard if any. It's better to get the guys in the bike shop to remove it if you are not comfortable doing it yourself.
