Organic and instinctive language learning. At school, at home … y en cualquier lugar!

Childhood is a period of intense cognitive development and rapid learning during which children acquire their knowledge of the world  by approaching a wide range of domains.

The first of such domains is language, the learning of which takes place within the social context closest to the children: Their own family. Language is an essential tool that enables us to communicate with others and to participate actively within a common cultural environment; for this reason adult family members support thoughts and actions through language, converting the experiences children live through at home into crucial settings for early language learning.
