Children who speak English and Spanish have the upper hand

Many studies have demonstrated that children who speak two languages develop skills such as selective listening - the ability to concentrate on important details while ignoring unimportant or distracting information. They are also able to better describe language characteristics and develop strong semantics and storytelling skills. Therefore we can say they are more eloquent speakers. 

A bilingual child has double the capacity to read and write. Therefore their knowledge is broader just by the sheer fact that they have access to more information through literature, history, traditions, conversations, ways of living and access to world media in two different languages. In short, a bilingual child is better able to build their knowledge, as a consequence their thinking is more advanced. This is why they are generally more creative, flexible and open to the world and other people. In addition to this, global companies are always looking for bilingual personel, which means the doors of businesses around the world are always open to bilingual individuals.
