now learning 2 languages side by side

Not having much luck teaching the children Hungarian but have had an idea. S' primary school are offering French classes after school... so I enrolled him with the idea that if he enjoys that I will add the Hungarian equivalent to whatever he learns.

So far so good, he has learned happy new year, bonne annee, boldog uj evet and seems to have taken both languages on board. Now we can start to choose which language to speak in. Such as...

"what would you like to eat?" and S an choose Hungarian or French to answer and I will always give the language he has not said too, to reinforce.

Hopefully this will make it more like a game and also give him some control of the languag he chooses to speak, as often children will not speak the other languge preferring the language of the country they live in - naturally.

I am nothing if not inventive!
