When people go to a kid’s party for the first time in Australia, they might be confronted with something called “fairy bread”. So, I thought I’d invite an expert on kids to the show, Erika Deery, to help explain some of these oddities.Erika is the author of several bilingual children's books featuring a character called Millie. While she is on the show to talk about this, we take the opportunity to discuss some different philosophies about bilingualism and raising bilingual kids.And of course, we talk about what to expect at a kid’s party and explain the history of fairy bread.Erika’s work can be found at: https://www.milliebooks.com/And on social media with the same name.If you would like a transcript for this episode, find all content and have a say in the creative process, think about becoming a patron:patreon.com/AustraliansTeachEnglishOr check out my other podcast - IELTS in the Sun - the podcast to help you prepare your English exam: https://open.spotify.com/show/7wVfUn2wKiQxlE47vLudmc?si=VWsuUzo-T4esfb1KnjW3aA
