It is completely normal for children to grow up multilingual. However, parents of multilingual children often have many doubts and questions about how they can support their child’s language development. Join us on the 5th of May and learn more about language development in multilingual children with PhD. Justin Markussen-Brown.
Justin Markussen-Brown will discuss:
- The two main types of bilingual development
- How long it takes for a child to develop skills in two languages
- The benefits of developing strong language skills in multiple languages during childhood
- Techniques and strategies that parents can use to support their child’s development in their own language, as well as what they can do to support their child’s Danish
- The obligatory Danish screenings that all bilingual children must undergo when they are 3 years old
