Benefits of learning a second language as a child:

Learning a second language at a young age is cognitively as easy as learning a first language. Between birth and adolescence the brain is hard-wired to acquire language naturally. 

Taking advantage of this window of opportunity by exposing your child to a second language young allows a child to optimize his or her learning potential, helping to shape the brain at its most flexible stage.

Overall, the ease of learning a second language diminishes with age. As a child approaches puberty, the nature of language learning and storage changes, becoming less flexible.

The more stimulation language centers in the brain receive during this critical window of opportunity in childhood, the more neural connections develop, enhancing not only long term language skills, but overall intelligence development.
