This is a group for any biracial parents with one parent being Chinese. The goal is to immerse children in an environment that has a stronger Chinese element, which is often missing in biracial families. Through different kinds of activities such as outings, picnics, birthday parties, all with some level of "Chineseness", for instance, with at least a few parents speaking Chinese to children, children (and maybe the non-Chinese partners as well) will learn some Chinese while having fun. And of c …

ESPECIALLY trying to balance it all alone. Here's my attempt to form a group where we can make it our own, more then just occasional play dates but forge friendships for ourselves and children, support and ju …

I am an educator and I deeply believe in the benefits of exposing children to other cultures in order for them to develop empathy and tools to relate in a multicultural society. Moreover, I find Spanish to be a very useful tool for our little ones to open doors in their future. Finally, what better age to learn an additional language than when they are this young (0-3). It's effortless and they will have a native pronunciation IF we expose them often enough to the language. Check the most recent …
