Neither wife or I speak spanish but we want to start the kids - 7, 5, 5.

A Spanish immersion class is a good way to learn Spanish.

Hire an interpreter. Do you bet in sports by chance?

My wife and I enrolled our youngest in a Spanish immersion daycare program at the age of 3. We would have liked for him to continue in a bilingual elementary school. Unfortunately, our school district doesn't offer this program.

A year or two in public school should do the trick.

Teach your kids latin so they may teach their children to reconquer Constantinople for the glory of Christendom.

Me: "Alright, come on kiddos!"
Daughter: "Why do you call us kiddos?"
Me: "Because you're a kiddo."
Daughter: "Oh, I get it. It's like, 'kid,' but it must be in Spanish."

Ha beat me to it. That one there was just for the taking.

To the OP, you're gonna have to learn Spanish too. Kids won't retain a lick of Spanish if they don't have a way to use it. With languages, you have to use it or lose it.

Why don't you just worry about mastering English first? It's neither/nor, not neither/or.

"Neither wife or I" implies neither of your wives or yourself speak Spanish.
