I can teach them to speak it but not read or write.</p> <p>@T-Mom: oh no, were you able to get a refund?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-going-to-enroll-lo-in-weekendsummer-language-class#post-1082670 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 13:23:38 +0000 chopsuey 1082670@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! My kids are bilingual, but it'll be nice for them to learn how to read/spell from someone else. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-going-to-enroll-lo-in-weekendsummer-language-class#post-1082667 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 13:22:11 +0000 lamariniere 1082667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS gets enough of a 3rd language at school already, so I don't think we need anything else for now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-going-to-enroll-lo-in-weekendsummer-language-class#post-1082659 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 13:20:24 +0000 T-Mom 1082659@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We took my DD to her first Saturday Mandarin class a few weekends ago and she had an epic meltdown.. and I had an epic blow up. Not my finest moment. We decided to quit and try again next year. Classic case of me trying to force her into doing something I want to do, not what SHE wants to do. Lesson learned. (Note: every child is different). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-going-to-enroll-lo-in-weekendsummer-language-class#post-1082652 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 13:18:43 +0000 lavender 1082652@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@locavore_mama: yep, there are a couple near me, but they are getting harder to find. Helps that Boston's Chinese speaking population is still (well majority) Cantonese speaking. And I think DH is tired of asking for translations from me... especially jokes, ya know how they say "lost in translation"? Happens to him all he time </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-going-to-enroll-lo-in-weekendsummer-language-class#post-1082602 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 13:06:53 +0000 MediaNaranja 1082602@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hopefully any future LO will already be bilingual (English/Spanish) but I would LOVE to enroll them in an additional class since they pick languages up so easily when they are little! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-going-to-enroll-lo-in-weekendsummer-language-class#post-1082576 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 13:03:13 +0000 regberadaisy 1082576@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lavender: you have Cantonese near you???? I would much prefer that. I kinda love that DH is as well. If we had Cantonese I would enroll DH. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-going-to-enroll-lo-in-weekendsummer-language-class#post-1082563 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 13:00:41 +0000 lavender 1082563@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, Saturday morning Cantonese classes and actually my husband is going to take them as well! I did 3 years of Saturday classes and hated it at the time but grateful now . </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-going-to-enroll-lo-in-weekendsummer-language-class#post-1082557 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 12:58:03 +0000 autumnlove 1082557@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't know. We never took any classes... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-going-to-enroll-lo-in-weekendsummer-language-class#post-1082553 Thu, 12 Sep 2013 12:57:09 +0000 regberadaisy 1082553@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think weekend Mandarin class. I took Mandarin all summer all through my youth and hated it! </p>
