This paper explores the challenges and strategies in trilingual child development and blended learning in modern education. It addresses the nurturing of trilingualism in children, especially in predominantly monolingual settings, and highlights the cognitive benefits of multilingualism, such as enhanced problem-solving and cognitive flexibility. The study also examines the effectiveness of blended learning, a combination of traditional classroom and online education, particularly relevant during the COVID-19 pandemic. It assesses this approach in enhancing engagement and performance in trilingual students, using the Community of Inquiry framework. The paper aims to contribute to the understanding of trilingual child development and inform educational practices tailored to multilingual students' needs.
