    I think its a fantastic idea. I speak in Spanish sometimes to Matilda & she has been known to count & say a few words to us in Spanish. We now have Dora to back me up & DH is learning along as well.... I just thought it was a good idea to expose her to another language & the only ones I know are Spanish and Italian (only a little of both though...).

    do it!!! dont worry about mistakes, but there's nothing better as learning another language as second mother-tounge.

    never ever again would the kids learn easier.

    if i would have the chance, i would do it.
    but my english is too bad

    buut .. we sing a lot in english and xander loves dora the explorer (in germany they use a lot of english words), he is 2 years now and can count until 6 in english *proud* (he cant do that in german, but stuff it )

    its a good chance for your kids...
