The program will also include the assistance of mothers influencers in each city. “Initiatives like these are essential to boost the mission of HITN Learning,” said David Rust, CEO of HITN Learning. “Hispanic Heritage Month” is an excellent opportunity to promote pride in roots, while presenting the latest approved teaching methods in mathematics and language. Thus we reaffirm the commitment to continue promoting bilingual education with the objective of contributing to the academic, social and emotional success of Hispanic families.”

‘Raising bilingual children in a multicultural world’, is a 2-hour program, which will present practical tips for parents with fun activities for children in seven Barnes & Noble bookstores. The program will also include educational activities for children with the Cleo & Cuquin Family Fun educational package and App!

Each event will feature the participation of educator Dr. Mariana Diaz-Wionczek, experienced educational consultant for children’s programs: ‘Dora la Exploradora’ and ‘Sesame Street’, who will offer practical advice for parents, emphasizing the benefits of exposing children at an early age to bilingual education.

“Bilingualism is a beautiful thing! Being able to speak two languages builds many bridges and expands our worldview, and it all starts at home, when parents speak with their children in the native language,” said Mariana Wionczek, PhD in Early Childhood Education. “It is important to expose children to the Spanish language at an early age as much as possible in a way that is natural to them.”
