How Learning a Second Language Boosts Your Child’s Speech and Language Development. Discover how learning French or Spanish can support your child’s communication skills, confidence, and overall language development. Many parents are surprised to learn that introducing a second language at an early age doesn’t just teach new words - it actually strengthens a child’s speech and language development.

This year, Languages Week Scotland runs from Monday 2 to Friday 6 February 2026. The week is a national celebration of language learning and multilingualism. It’s a brilliant chance for schools, nurseries, childminders and families to spotlight the many languages spoken in Scotland – and to give children a positive, playful experience of languages.
