Bilingualism: The Must-Have 21st-Century Skill Every Child Needs for Future Success

In an age of AI, automation, and globalization, bilingualism isn’t just a “nice-to-have” anymore—it’s a critical skill. Studies show that bilingual children develop stronger cognitive abilities, cultural awareness, and career advantages in an increasingly interconnected world.
