Andr\u00e9s Nieto is learning how to count just like most toddlers, but unlike some 3-year-olds, he\u2019s doing it in two languages.<\/p>\n

Andr\u00e9s attends the Hualapai Day Care center in Peach Springs where teachers focus on preserving the region\u2019s native language by teaching it to the next generation of young learners.<\/p>\n

\u201cI really like that they\u2019re teaching the kids Hualapai words, because he\u2019s using them at home, too,\u201d said Andr\u00e9s\u2019 mom, Heather Nieto. \u201cHe can say his numbers in Hualapai, along with \u2018Hello, how are you?\u2019 and \u2018Come here.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

Research shows that culturally-based early learning programs with strong native language programs positively influence a young child\u2019s academic, social and cultural development, including self-identity.<\/p>\n

The Hualapai Day Care has a preschool teacher on staff who is fluent in the Hualapai language and incorporates basic words into everyday lessons. The Hualapai Day Care has also partnered with the Boys and Girls Club to offer language classes once a month to parents and children.<\/p>\n

The Hualapai Day Care center is a participant of First Things First\u2019s signature program Quality First,<\/a> which partners with child care centers and preschools across Arizona to improve early learning.<\/p>\n

The center encourages parents to support learning at home through take-home activities and monthly family nights, Nieto said.<\/p>\n

Andr\u00e9s has attended the Hualapai Day Care center since he was 6 months old. Since he is an only child, Nieto said that at home, her son is mostly around adults. Being around kids his own age has taught him how to get along with others, which is a critical part of being ready to start kindergarten.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love that when he\u2019s at the center he\u2019s around his peers and developing his social skills,\u201d Nieto said.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
