Hi, I know you were probably asking a question in jest,... but my answer to you is 'As young as possible'.

I'm from tropical Singapore and of late, have been reading your blog because it'd be a dream to see the arctic for myself. Plus, your blog is really quite interesting!

Anyways, the kids here learn the 2nd language as young as 2, but the normal age is about 5. =)
