BhashaKids Webinar: How to Use Bilingual Resources

Your responses help us to better tailor the content of this and future workshops. These questions are also designed to help you consider factors in raising a multilingual family. 

The questions primarily reference Malayalam as an example, however, if your target language is not Malayalam, simply substitute that language in the questions instead.  

We will discuss these responses at the workshop.  

If you get a chance, please watch the 5 minute video at the end of the survey. 

Thanks! Anita
