Every year, March 27 is considered to be International Day of Multilingualism. One of the best ways to encourage language learning is to share a list of FREE bilingual or foreign language activities.
Language plays an important role in our lives. It is all around us, depending on where you live in the world, you could probably hear more than two languages spoken. Therefore, during this moment, you could start learning a language you’ve been meaning to learn or teach your children. If you need a few reasons why you should start a language, here they are.
Which Languages?
I tried to include a list of bilingual learning activities from at least the top five foreign languages spoken around the world like French, Spanish, Arabic, and Chinese from fellow bloggers and teachers.
These activities are favorites in our household or have been recommended to me by various Facebook groups.
For use in any language
