Mom Crew is partnering with NYU’s BabyChildTeen research cohort of accomplished PhDs and professors on a monthly Lunch and Learn series. In March, Dr. Sudha Arunachalam will lead a talk on raising multilingual children.
Humans are born with the ability to learn as many languages as we are exposed to. We will share research from linguistics, psychology, and neuroscience about children's amazing abilities to learn more than one language. We will talk about the benefits of knowing multiple languages and debunk some common misconceptions. We will also go over practical strategies for introducing a second or third language in your home.
There will be time for some questions at the end. Tickets will be available until 1 hour before the event. The Zoom will be recorded and sent to everyone who signs up in advance in case you miss the live event.
By signing up for this event, you agree to be added to the Mom Crew and NYU BabyChildTeen mailing lists. You may unsubscribe at any time. If you would like to join without opting in, please email Mom Crew.
Tickets are nonrefundable but may be transferred to another mom by emailing Emily@MyMomCrew.com.
About Dr. Sudha Arunachalam
My research at the LEARN Lab examines one of the most amazing accomplishments of early childhood: learning language. I work with infants, toddlers, and preschoolers to ask questions about how children discover the meanings of words and how children’s everyday experiences support language learning. This work interfaces with linguistics, cognitive and developmental psychology, and communication sciences and disorders.
BabyChildTeen@NYU is a collection of developmental research labs at the Washington Square campus of New York University. We study how kids develop and grow over time, and we want our research to be accessible to families all over New York City.
We encourage you to sign up to participate in online research studies, which are available for children of all ages, from newborns to teenagers. They’re a great way to engage your children, and you'll have the opportunity to speak to developmental psychologists about any questions you may have regarding child development. Once it is safe to do so, we will also resume in-person studies and we would love to have you visit our labs.
Sign up to be invited to upcoming research studies (no obligation to participate). Also, be sure to check out our Facebook page for more information about events and studies. If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at babychildteen@nyu.edu or give us a call at (212) 998-9058.
