  Olga, thanks! I’m glad you like it! (It wasn’t easy trying to explain the Tower of Babel to my son!)

I’ll be sharing this with my bilingual/ESL teacher ed students after the break. Bonus points for the team who can explain the significance of the most items!
Love it!

I want something that will make me smile more than once.

I want some kind of tool or system which will help me have more nice dreams.

I want a game which has a nice smell to it and when I press the button, music emerges which gives the smell even more character.

I enjoyed this. I will have to build a Lego Tower of Babel with my children, what a fabulous idea!

This year, my children have written 2 letters to Santa – one in each of their languages, asking for different things in each one. Can’t blame them for trying!!

What Parents Are Saying

"Adam's books and advice have made an amazing impact on our entire family. I started reading his work before I gave birth to my daughter almost five years ago, and have been following him ever since. My daughter is now trilingual (Italian, English, Spanish) like her mom, and is now learning to read in all three languages as well. We will continue to implement Adam's advice with our son, who will turn 1 in a couple of weeks. Thank you Adam for all that you do; you are a gift to the world!"

"I came across your book when I was pregnant with my daughter. I used your book for a post graduate project on bilingualism, for my personal life, and for my work supporting bilingual families, children in schools, and teachers. I have recommended your book, blog, YouTube channel, and other resources to everyone I have encountered on this path. Thanks so much for your hard work in this quest. Infinitely grateful, amigo."

"I can't say enough good things about Adam Beck's book Maximize Your Child's Bilingual Ability. Before I read it, I was hopeless that my almost 4-year-old son would become proficient in Portuguese, my mother tongue. However, after reading Adam's book and putting into practice every tactic suitable to our situation, I noticed extraordinary progress in my son's language ability. He is now 4 years and 5 months old and not only does he speak Portuguese with me, he interacts with his little brother, 20 months old, in Portuguese. I am beyond excited with such striking progress and forever thankful to Adam for providing invaluable tools for our bilingual children to thrive."

"The Bilingual Monkeys website is such a wonderful resource and I'm grateful I found it at the beginning of our bilingual journey. Your book, especially, gave me a path to follow and motivation that it can really work. I pass on the link to both the website and book to anyone who will take it! Thank you, Adam, for being such a practical and positive leader in the bilingual community!"

"I consider myself very lucky to have come across your blog in the vast expanse of the Internet, and I never go more than two or three days without checking the forum. The Bilingual Zoo is the perfect place to meet other parents of bilingual kids, exchange tips, and encourage each other. Your book has also been a great source of motivation, and I've given away copies to other bilingual families because I consider it the most practical, hands-on book on the subject."
