<p>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.</p><p>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.</p><p>And of course, we talk about what to expect at a kid’s party and explain the history of fairy bread.</p><p>Erika’s work can be found at: https://www.milliebooks.com/</p><p>And on social media with the same name.</p><p>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:</p><p>patreon.com/AustraliansTeachEnglish</p><p>Or check out my other podcast - IELTS in the Sun - the podcast to help you prepare your English exam: </p><p>https://open.spotify.com/show/7wVfUn2wKiQxlE47vLudmc?si=VWsuUzo-T4esfb1KnjW3aA</p><p><br></p>
