Como conservar la lengua materna de los niños
Early Edge’s Executive Director, Patricia Lozano, joins the Telemundo 52’s Acceso Total program with presenter Armida Mier to share why and how families should practice Spanish with their children during the summer. Patricia also shares resources from Quality Start LA’s “Two Languages, Twice the Opportunities” campaign.
“Remember that two languages are better than one. And learning two languages strengthens their brains because bilingual children solve problems better, their memory is more efficient, and they graduate more.”
“Recuerda que dos idiomas son mejores que uno. Y aprender dos idiomas fortalece su cerebro porque los niños bilingües resuelven mejor los problemas, su memoria es más eficiente y se gradúan más.”
