language for baby

[florence tan]

My son is 2+ years old. We are teaching him English only.. Recently, found that he pronounce Chinese words in a Ang Mo way. What are your thoughts on language for children? Should they be taught both English and mother tonuge ?

I heard children can learn more languages when they are young. Don't know how true.

I believe in single language teaching. It will only confuse the child if too many languages are taught at a time.
