Did you know that travel can be one of the most powerful ways to boost your child's language development? Whether it's through interacting with locals, attending cultural events, or playing games on the go, each trip offers endless opportunities for bilingual growth. This past summer, before I had surgery, I had some amazing experiences—from watching La Copa América in Miami with my familia to enjoying a week in Punta Cana. Along the way, I discovered just how valuable travel can be for raising a bilingual or multilingual child.In this episode, I'll share 5 tried-and-true tips on how you can use travel to supercharge your child's language learning, all inspired by my own experiences.
Here’s a sneak peek into what you’ll learn in this episode:
How might traveling to a Spanish-speaking country boost your child's learning in the language and culture?
How could engaging with locals or attending cultural events, like La Copa América, help your child create lasting language memories?
What role can road trip games, apps, or family favorites like lotería play in keeping language learning fun while on the go?
How can interacting with local kids or attending camps boost your child's confidence in speaking the language?
How could involving your family in conversations using the target language during your trip help reinforce your child’s language learning?

"If you're raising bilingual and multilingual children, prioritizing travel should be at the top of the list because if you live in the U.S., unfortunately, you're not gonna have that immersion experience unless you're living in a city where the minority language is spoken all the time." -Janny Perez
