I just learned that a library in the city next to mine has a Library of Things department, filled with expensive kitchen appliances and household tools and gadgets that you sometimes REALLY need but rarely need often. So you can just BORROW them. Another reason I love libraries.

Nice tips to bring a 2nd language to tinies. When taught useful language (vs. word lists), kids see new words as a tool they can use. Award-winning songs about daily routines, & activities to introduce vocab & playfully engage @ singalingo.com bit.ly/2pLisQp

Interesting! Make it fun for the little ones, and they'll engage and pick it up faster.
