We arrange weekly visits to both home and center daycares in order to ensure that preschoolers have the ability to learn French prior to entering school. We ensure that our little participants’ first experiences with the French language are encouraging and FUN. We introduce basic French vocabulary that is useful to children in their day-to-day life. We do this through: song, movement, and a variety of engaging activities. We use helpful tools, such as: musical instruments, puppets, scarves, children’s books, and MUCH more!
