Maintaining Hebrew in Texas

My kids all understand Hebrew, but only my oldest daughter will actually converse in it. My Hebrew is pretty fluent, even though it's not my native language. I really want to speak with them in Hebrew so that their comprehension doesn't disappear while we are in self imposed "exile" here in Texas. I have a new son, so it's easy to talk with him in Hebrew. The added benefit is that my other kids hear me talking with him and are absorbing what I am saying to their brother.

I wish I had some way to encourage more Hebrew speaking in our house. If anyone out there has any suggestions, I'd love to hear from you!
