Hi,

My daughter is turning 7 months in two days and she hasn't pronounced a word as of yet. She babbles a lot and although she did say "popo" a few weeks ago, it wasn't conscious and she didn't realize it.
She usually loves repeating new sound she makes and I can tell she is dying to be able to communicate.

Do you have any tips on how to stimulate her speech more? And did you feel that your chil/ren started speaking later because of their bilingualism?

Thank you.
Deb

Hi everyone,

I am the first-time mother of a baby girl aged 7 months. She is raised in a bilingual environment (English and French), in a Montessori and Doman inspired way.

I am also part of a team of three expat mums working together on a beautiful project aimed at teaching geography differently to children ! It is as easy as exchanging packages with families around the world ! It has proved very popular and more than 1200 packages have been sent so far. We also do penpal and school swaps ! Find out more here: http://worldwidecultureswap.blogspot.fr !

I am also looking to discuss with other parents raising their children in a bilingual environment ! And would love some tips on how to stimulate speech in this case !

Merci, thank you,
Deb
