[quote=Anonymous]OP love this, very jealous!  I was able to live abroad many times during my childhood and it was the most wonderful experience for my family.  I have lived in the Netherlands (family is from a Dutch island) many times and while I love it I do not believe it fits OPs requirements.  If you are looking for a place that your children thrive and use a useful language this is not the place for you.  Nearly everyone in the Netherlands speaks English and learning Dutch is pretty worthless for a foreigner and gets me nowhere in life.  If price were no concern, I personally would choose Switzerland.  It a very diverse population with many different language influences.  I would probably live in or near Geneva and send my children to the International School of Geneva.  We love to ski so that would be another big bonus for Switzerland.  
Another idea is Belgium, most specifically Brussels.  I have had many friends who went to the International School of Brussels and again the different influences of the country are great.[/quote]
