Wish I had played outside more & spent less time studying! :)
Is it all that studying? :)
I'm sorry--me, too! Wish I could go back in time & spend a lot of time outside!
Mandarin instruction in NW Indiana?
Would love to get my kids in a Mandarin language program - husband is Chinese, I am not and minimal Mandarin is spoken at home. Problem is I can only find schools/classes in the North and West Chicago suburbs, and we live in Dyer, IN. Does anyone know of any places in NW Indiana or the south Chicago suburbs?
