Canada has two official languages and all kids are required to learn some french in school and have the option of going to all-french, all-english, or mixed language public schools in this province. The city i live in is primarily english, but 15 outside our community (in any direction) is mainly french, so i think it is important for my kids to be bilingual. It is a huge asset if you want a government job and it think it is just a nice skill to have in general. I''ll enroll my son in french starting in kindergarden. I think that''s a little late so hopefully i can find daycare or some activity in french prior to this.
My grandparents are italian immigrants and speak the language fluently. i get my grandma to speak to my son in italian and hopefully he picks up a few words just for fun (he only uses ''nona'' right now)
