Recommendations for children's language primers?

I speak English and French fluently, and a little Spanish, and some basic American Sign Language. I can count, ask costs, and purchase basic foods and beer in German and Japanese - military brat, what can I say? My sister's Spanish is excellent, and I have a friend fluent in Japanese. So, the plan is that this baby will be exposed to as many languages as possible.

I would like, then, to get some good children's primers in those languages. In addition, I know it's peculiar, but I am looking for a children's Latin primer and some basic materials in Old English. Any suggestions would be very welcome- there are a lot of primers out there, but I want to use the clearest and most accurate!

    Teach English first and foremost. Then expose your child to Pimsleur's learn and speak audio series (teaches an English speaking person a different language including Spanish, German, Japanese, Mandarin Chinese, French, and Italian). Even as an adult, I've learned a bit from these language audio-books.

    well, babies can learn to sign before they can physically speak, so it will help it's communication skills a ton if u teach it simple stuff like more and food and stuff like that in ASL so it can tell u want it wants b4 it can actually speak and say wut it wants.
