~1.2 million Ukrainians in Germany (2024) — fastest growing group. Bilingual child: Ukrainian at home, kindergarten/school German. Strategy: parent — one language, 15 min/day read aloud, Ukrainian Saturday school (every big city), holidays in the language environment. Abitur-Ukrainian = exam as a foreign language. Plus: bilinguals — better memory, better math, free choice.
