I am the Business Manager of The International School, a non-profit pre and elementary school that specializes on language immersion in Mandarin, Japanese, or Spanish. We are already doing what you are talking about, raising kids as young as 3 years old, to be fluent in Mandarin and other Pacific Rim languages. This skill will be critical now and in the future, and gives our children immense self-confidence. This is a winning concept that all parents should consider for their children.
