Does anyone have bilingual toddlers? I absolutely want to start teaching my son a second language, but not sure what age is the best to start. I know everyone’s different, anyways I was just curious becuse i figured the younger the better

My son is almost trilingual NZSL, English and Te Reo. He’s 2.5
Start with baby sign language baby Einstein videos.
My daughter is bilinigual. We live in México so our first language is spanish but I also taught her english since birth. She stil isn’t 100% fluent but she is getting there.
The younger the better .
I babysit a little since he was two months , he is two years now and he speaks English and I been teaching him Spanish, he is like a sponge
Asap. Don’t wait until they’re older. Right now is when their brains are developing the most so right now is the best timing to start teaching

The younger the better! They are lost sponges and absorb everything!

5 kids ages 3-25 all bilingual! My older 2 -one added French and the other Arabic (military purposes)
As soon as they start saying a few words

My nephews speak three languages (maybe four?). They are completely fluent in two. There’s no age to start at - the earlier the better because it’s when you learn languages. It’s also about keeping it up. My husband was bilingual as a child but has almost totally forgotten his official mother-tongue!
