Raising Bilingual Children

A practical, research-backed workshop for parents and caregivers.

Raising a bilingual or multilingual child is one of the greatest gifts you can give, but it also comes with questions. How can I help children maintain their heritage language? What if they prefer English? Will speaking more than one language confuse them? What does the research actually say?

Join the Harvard Museum of Natural History for an engaging morning designed specifically for parents, caregivers, and families raising bilingual children. Hear from leading researchers from Harvard and Tufts University as they share the latest findings on bilingualism, heritage language development, and practical strategies for supporting children’s language growth at home. Each short talk will be followed by opportunities for questions and discussion.

$30/person for members. $35/person for nonmembers. Price includes museum admission.
