My child has difficulty with the Dutch language

Does your child have trouble with the Dutch language? That can be difficult. It can affect how your child feels and how they do in school. The earlier you start with language, the better. Talking in your own language at home also helps. Starting with language early ensures that your child will later be better able to participate at school and with other children.
