Advantages of your child learning another language:

Learning a language is a wonderful opportunity for kids to broaden their view of the world.

It means understanding and learning to speak, read, write, listen and think in another way.  It also gives the opportunity to explore and appreciate the wealth of knowledge that is part of each language and its culture.
