I took him to take the kindergarten test last week and I must admit I was more nervous than he was. He has that cute way of saying I&#8217;m here, pay attention to me! When the teacher who was testing him asked: Could you please tell me the ABCs? He answered: Would you like to hear it in English, Portuguese or Spanish? She was speechless in a good way! He did the three versions of letters and numbers and passed the test with flying colors! When I heard the report from the teacher,\u00a0 that he not only did that but that his language skills are way above normal for his age, I suddenly realized something I have been talking about for years! My &#8220;AHA&#8221; moment came and I was moved to see my son&#8217;s skills blossom and amazed by the impact of foreign languages in his life.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m extremely proud and happy to give you this report because I have been a strong advocate for early age foreign language teaching and I had only studies and some students to bring the knowledge of the effects of introducing a foreign language at early age. Now I have a much stronger sense of what can be accomplished and I wish to share my experience and expertise to moms all over the world and encourage them to start!<\/p>\n<p>Contact me, if you wish to have some free materials and links to start or give me your e-mail address if you wish to be on our news list. We will be giving away copies of my highly anticipated Mommy and Me Little Red Riding Hood &#8211; Come and have fun using Spanish!<\/p>\n<p>Regards,<\/p>\n<p>Claudia Krusch<br \/>\nCK Translations LLC<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My own son is the topic of this post.
