Parang sponge ang mga bata kasi sobrang dali sa kanilang mag "soak up" ng information, lalo na kung fun ang method na ginamit niyo. Siyempre wala na tayong magagawa dun sa school setting sa Australia dahil talagang mga Englishero ang kausap nila. So ang magiging task ng parents yung sa bahay:
1) Tulad nung kwinento ni @ram071312, effective yung Filipino-only at home na rule.
2) Magpatugtog tayo ng mga Tagalog songs. Kung bata pa, mga Filipino Nursery Rhymes (Tong Tong Tong Pakitong, Pen Pen De Sarapen, Ako Ay May Lobo, Sampung Mga Daliri, atbp).
3) Magpapanood tayo sa kanila ng mga pambatang Tagalog na palabas, tulad ng Hiraya Manawari.
4) Basahan natin sila ng mga Tagalog na libro (books from Adarna, Tahanan, Lampara, etc). Siguraduhin rin natin na hindi magtatapos sa pagbabasa ng kuwento. Dapat magtanong rin tayo sa kanila ng mga tungkol sa kuwento para makatulong sa kanila na ma-comprehend yung naririnig niya (Ano pangalan nung tao sa kuwento? Anong ginawa nila? Saan sila pumunta? Bakit kaya niya yun ginawa? Kung nangyari yun sayo, anong gagawin mo?)
Ayan lang naiisip ko sa ngayon. Sana nakatulong!

@sunflower
bibilihin ko na nga yung yellow na book na my abakada e kolektahin ko na mga OPM songs namen pero madalas mga hindi yung super luma na haha naiisip ko baka kasi naiilang na mga bata kapag ganoon tapos magtataka bakit nagagalit parents nila haha

Siguro if gusto talaga ng mga magulang na matutong magtagalog ang kanilang mga anak -- read, write and speak -- then they may want to consider sending them for Tagalog lessons, or find time to actually teach them. Unfortunately, the latter is probably easier said than done for most parents (especially those working).
