It is my first mother's day.Clara was born almost 3 months ago and everything has been wonderful since she arrived.Long before that day me and my husband decided that I would speak to her in English which is my third language(I speak Catalan,Spanish and a bit of German too)and my husband would speak Catalan to her.Other relatives would talk Spanish to her.
The aim of this blog is just to create a record for Clara of her progression and a way for me to become aware of her hopefully daily progress.
I don't have a clear idea how I will record that progression but so far I will include two sections
My progression
I have read books on bilingualism
I have been talking to her in English everyday since she was born(in fact I have been talking to her in English since I got pregnant which I think has made it easier to do when she arrived)
I have been reading to her for 15 minutes in English everyday
I have started creating her English Library
I play some background and we sing or exercises on her mat
Clara's progression
She patiently listens to my everyday reading
She has started to cooing and sometimes has tried to imitate the intonation of my sentences
