[quote=Anonymous]I'm keeping baby #3 (4 months old) for more reasons than this, but I'll share my experience of daycare/preschool for my DD (just turned 4). She started Spanish-immersion preschool this fall. I know that the mask wearing definitely has a negative effect on her Spanish language learning. She mispronounces so many words due to not seeing/hearing them clearly. Oh well. She's still learning a lot. But she tells me things like, "The opposite of feliz is sisde," I tell her it's "triste," and she argues no. It's often these same sounds she gets wrong. She can absolutely say those sounds and speak clearly. But she's not able to comprehend as what sounds the masked teachers are using - a lot of the sounds are more garbled.[/quote]
