Cantonese Parents Meetup 5

Hi! Let's get together for a Summer park hang! We'll plan for Vista Hermosa park again, which I feel like despite attempted efforts, we haven't actually been back to since our first gathering! The area closer to the park's West entrance is shady. We'll set up under the trees. Hope to see you guys there! Bring any Canto books, toys or resources you might want to share with the group. Picnic blanket recommended but no fret if you show up without one. 1 RSVP per family Whether or not you're bringing your fam, please RSVP for just yourself to leave space for others to RSVP (we're capped by Meetup to 10 RSVP guests). How my personal journey is going: My daughter is now 2, and extremely talkative. She mostly speaks in English but will say random things in Cantonese. She can say most of the colors in Canto (purple and yellow she gets stuck on for some reason) and even if she doesn't necessarily say them, she knows her body parts and animals in Canto. I consider this to be a mild miracle considering how often I (don't) speak to her in Cantonese (a mix of my own Canto limitations, and my perceived ability for her to understand instructions/respond to me when I say more unfamiliar things in Canto). Let's all support and encourage each other and our kids! Intentions: Create a fun, friendly, and supportive community Improve each other's Cantonese by providing more opportunities to speak and learn - both for parents and kids Bond with other Cantonese-speaking parents (or non-Canto parents trying to learn) and share the joys and challenges of trying to raise Cantonese-speaking humans Normalize Cantonese for our kids by creating a place where other kids also speak Cantonese Promote Cantonese language and culture, and both surface and serve the Canto-speaking community scattered throughout LA Share tips and Canto resources If you can't make this date/time, but are interested in the group, please message me. I'd love to hear from you.
