57) Revisiting Multilingual families!

It’s holiday time, and Eva and Maren are taking a few weeks off, but we’re revisiting some of our most popular episodes—the ones that resonated with you, that sparked connections, and offered the words many parents needed to express their own experiences.

Parenthood is a journey with its ups and downs. Sometimes we’re walking alongside you, sometimes a little ahead, and sometimes, we’re just here for you when you need to hit play and feel heard.

In today’s episode, Eowyn from On Raising Bilingual Children joins Maren and Eva to discuss the unique challenges and strategies for raising children in international families in the Netherlands when Dutch isn't the first language. Whether you're navigating the complexities of multilingual households or looking for tips on how to integrate a new language into your family's routine, this episode has something for everyone.

Eowyn shares insights on how to make language learning natural, how to support your child’s bilingual journey, and why it’s never too late to start. Be sure to tune in to future episodes with Eowyn, where she also shares strategies on helping your child through their school years and the power of language in a multicultural community.
