Any language is best learned at an early age, and communication is the best way to learn. Everything is exactly the same as with the native language: the more they talk to the child, the more rhymes and fairy tales are read to him, the more developed his speech becomes. It's great when parents can confidently communicate in several languages, but even if you only have a basic level of English - with the help of BigStart you can start speaking it with your baby right now.
How it works

BigStart is:
1 - phrasebook, including words and phrases on 12 topics *;
2 - basic phrases for 10 topics ** (free resource);
3 - Poems in English (free resource).
Why is this
Learning two languages at the same time gives a huge boost to your child's brain development. In addition, you are laying the foundation for bilingualism.
Studies conducted in the United States have shown that school-age children with whom they spoke two languages from birth, that is, bilinguals, have a more developed executive function of cognitive abilities (in the application you can find out what these thought processes are). The degree of development of the executive function determines the academic success of children: how easy it is for them to study, explore the world and process the experience gained.
Why now (0-3 years old)
The most capable learners of languages are children, especially in the first five years of life.
Unfortunately, as we grow up, we gradually lose the ability to master a new language effortlessly. According to scientists, this ability drops significantly already at the end of adolescence.
“Our research convinces us that the brain of babies is the best 'device' on the planet for learning languages, and there is no more favorable time for this in a person's life than the first three years.” - Professor Patricia Paul, Institute for Learning and Brain Sciences, Washington university).
When the brain is at the peak of its ability to master a skill, it makes sense to start learning and not waste time!
