I started the GD program with my son when he is about 6.5 mths. Since I am the only parent flashing cards with him, I have spent time figuring out how best to do it in both English and Putonghua. So, initially, I made a mistake by doing 2 sets of cards, one in English and one in Chinese 3 times within the limited timeframe I had in the morning, (i.e. 1 to 1.5 hours) before I leave home for work. Now, I did it alternate days, M, W, F in English; T, Th, Sat in Putonghua; and we have a break on Sundays. Lately, I added French but only on Saturday afternoons at a playgroup (though I do GD's picture cards with him in between the English flash card sessions).
I always wonder whether I have done the right thing or not....all these different languages. BTW we do not speak a lot of Cantonese with him as we figure that he will learn it anyway as his grand parents will speak that to him.
Although I have had this worry....he may be confused and he may start speech a little later than other kids as he may need time to figure out the languages, somehow I feel that he is smarter than I think? This is because the Putonghua teacher tells us that he understands what she is talking and we do feel that he can understand though he may not speak it.
Any parents out there got similar experiences?
