Cross posted from Survey talk - Needed volunteers for Bilingual vs Monolingual Study

Hi everyone, I posted in surveys and was told to cross post here for added interest.
I was wondering if anyone would be able to lend me a hand and help out on a Thesis I am currently writing on the advantages and disadvantages on raising children Bilingual.
I am asking for volunteers to have children complete a quick and easy, narrative task with a picture book about a missing frog, this can be done remotely and recorded using just a voice recording.
I have 5 German bilingual friends who have given me data but am finding it hard to pull in favours from friends with children who just speak English. I know its a long shot and was hoping in the kindness of strangers. If anyone is interested I can send more details, the privacy statements and the information for the professor in charge etc to show its all for an actual study! It would help me out so much and also help with a greater understanding about how humans learn and develop language. No children will be named in the study and the recordings transcribed to text and deleted after the study.
Looking for monolingual or bilingual children from ages 4-8, but this is just a suggestion.
Thank you all and Good Night!

My children are bilingual (English and Portuguese). PM me if you're interested in using them, they range in age from 4 to 14. My neighbours kids are too, so if you needed more I could ask her, her kids are 15 and 12.
