Meet up group for parents who want to expose their kids to Cantonese and are looking for opportunities to join playgroups that meet regularly.
About me: I am a mother of a 1 year old little girl. My partner - also a woman - and I are raising our daughter to be bilingual (English/Cantonese). I speak to our daughter exclusively in Cantonese and would like to meet up with other families raising their kids with exposure to Cantonese.

New Greeting for“Welcome to the Cantonese Speaking Parents in NYC meetup. Great to see more parents join in. We had our second meet-up today. It went pretty well I think. I hope to meet you in the next meetup probably in early December. I'm going to wait for Jacqueline to arrange it as she is likely to host it. -- Maggie”posted by Maggie Ho & Jessie Draven

“I am also a parent who believes we should pass along our native language (in this case, Cantonese) to our kids. Its very important that our culture, tradtions and the language not be forgotten.”
