Description
Children are able to behave pragmatically in an environment that is linguistically foreign to them. Even if they cannot communicate yet in the new language, they sense that it is language that helps to interact with others. When their interest is sparked through interacting with other children, for example, they will learn quickly and will enter the educational process. They learn a new language. Language role models and interesting and child-friendly activities can awaken this interest and inspire children.
