Subject: New Podcast about Bilingual Children (available in English and Dutch)
E-mail this message to a friend Kletsheads is a podcast about bilingual children for parents, teachers and speech language therapists. What can you expect if you’re raising your children bilingually? What’s important? What will help your children’s language development and what won’t? In each episode, Dr. Sharon Unsworth, linguist at Radboud University in Nijmegen, the Netherlands, and mother of two children (both bilingual, of course), discusses the science behind the language development of bilingual children with another expert. Along the way, there are practical tips, we hear from children about what it’s like growing up with two or more languages, and we talk to parents and professionals about their experiences with bilingual children. You can listen via the website (
www.kletsheadspodcast.org) or by searching for Kletsheads [English edition] in Apple Podcasts, Spotify or your favourite podcast app. A Dutch edition of the podcast was launched last year (listen via
