On this episode of Bilingual Avenue, I chat with Patricia Zaballos, author of Workshops Work!: A Parent’s Guide to Facilitating Writer’s workshops for Kids.  She shares so much insightful information to help our children become writers from a young age.  She breaks down how children really learn to write and lets us know about her very useful blog!  Get ready to be inspired and learn how you can get started with writing at home right away!


Navigating the path of raising children who speak more than one language comes with unique questions and moments of doubt. Bilingual Avenue with Marianna Du Bosq exists within that space, offering conversations that feel like a supportive chat with a well-informed friend. Each episode brings voices from both sides of the journey: seasoned experts who study language acquisition sit alongside parents who are in the thick of it, sharing what has worked in their own homes and classrooms. You’ll hear honest stories about strategies that succeeded, obstacles that surprised them, and the small, everyday inspirations that keep the bilingual journey moving forward. This podcast serves as a practical companion, demystifying the process and providing tangible takeaways you can apply, whether you’re just starting out or looking to overcome a specific challenge. It’s about building confidence and community, turning the abstract idea of multilingualism into a lived and manageable reality for your family. Tune in to find clarity and connection on a road that, while rewarding, is always better traveled with a bit of guidance and shared experience.
