From there, I went on to teach her the rest of her body parts in Spanish. We often play this game where I ask her, "Where's your eyes? Where's your nose? etc...), and she loves it. So I started asking here "Donde esta tus ojos?, Donde esta tu nariz? etc...) while pointing to the correct part. In no time at all she was able to point to most of her body parts in both English and Spanish!
Here's how we do it. I promise I'm not showing her. She knows!
I was concerned that teaching her Spanish might confuse her, but it hasn't seemed to at all. I am excited for her to have a head start when it comes to learning a second language and I will continue to share updates as we learn even more!
And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.
I love this! We decided that we were going to teach our son sign language to help him communicate before he could speak and it helped us tremendously! We're constantly adding words to his vocabulary, and now that my husband is going to be learning Spanish to help him with his job, we've decided we're going to teach our son that as well! I wish my parents would have done this with me when I was younger! :) Great job with your little one! Keep up the awesome work! She's adorable!
