Raising Multilingual Children: A Parent’s Afternoon

Are you raising your child with more than one language, expecting your first child, or curious about multilingual family life?

Join us at Café Wildflower for a warm and welcoming afternoon exploring the joys and challenges of raising multilingual children. Led by Annika Milena Schimpff, PhD researcher in Applied Linguistics, the event combines research-based insights with practical guidance and personal reflection.
