Curious to know if there is anyone here who has tried teaching their children a lot of
languages while young, and what their strategies and challenges were.
Considering young children's miraculous aptitude for languages, it seems to me that it
would be wonderful to provide young children with as much foreign language exposure as
possible, as young as possible. Of course if you know more than one language, you
should speak them all to your child, but what is the best way to expose them to a
language you don't know? Hire a Chinese babysitter twice a week? Clearly it would
take time, effort, and probably money, but considering the huge benefits I think it
would be well worth it for the baby. If my parents had done this for me I would be
eternally grateful.

For each link please remove the space between "T" and "ID" so as to make it "TID"
