Raising Bilingual Children

A practical, research-backed workshop for parents and caregivers

Harvard Museum of Natural History 

26 Oxford St., Cambridge, MA 02138 

Saturday, October 3, 2026

10:00 am to 12:30 pm 

Raising a bilingual or multilingual child is one of the greatest gifts you can give, but it also comes with questions. How can I help my child maintain our heritage language? What if they prefer English? Will speaking more than one language confuse them? What does the research actually say?

Join experts from Harvard and Tufts University to learn how to:

  • Support your child's bilingual development
  • Keep your home or heritage language thriving
  • Build confidence in raising multilingual children
  • Get questions answered and meet other multilingual families
