New project aims to develop young children's language learning skills

 

The campaign "Cymraeg-kids soak it up", which is organised by the Welsh Language Board, was launched last week and promotes the fact that children find it easier learning a language at a younger age.

The marketing project, now in its third year, is aimed at new parents and parents to be and will promote the benefits of bilingualism and the advantages of learning to speak Welsh as a young child.

Wrexham is one of 13 areas which are taking part in the project this year. The project is financed by the Welsh Language Board, but is organised by the local Mentrau Iaith group.

Menter Iaith Maelor has organised a number of exciting events during February and March to raise awareness about the project.
