"No! No! No! Not again!” Lisa exclaims when she opens the door to her room.
Lisa’s shouts send everyone running to her room. There in front of you is a familiar sight. Lisa’s room is in a shambles. The chairs, table, mattress, and lamp have been turned upside down.
“At least they got us before we arrived this time,” Tony comments.
“How did they know?” you ask.

Give your child the benefits of learning a second language
Research has shown that children who learn a second language do better in school, get higher test and SAT scores, go on to better colleges, and have the added job opportunities that only come with knowing a second language. Furthermore, a considerable amount of research has shown that learning a second language in childhood helps children learn to read and write their native language.

Based on natural learning principles
When children learn their native language in early childhood, it is not through the study of grammar rules and vocabulary lists. Rather, they learn the words for things around them simply by listening to others. They intuitively grasp an amazing amount of grammar and syntax. By using activities that simulate natural language acquisition, it is not only possible, but normal for children to learn a new language quickly and enjoy doing it!
