6 Months - 3 Years (45 Minute Classes)
Students attend Tots classes with a parent or caregiver.

Original Program
In a 45-minute Original Program structured playgroup, children absorb their target language through games, visual aids, original LWFC songs, tactile materials and more!

Original Program with Arts and Crafts (Spanish & French only)
In an Arts & Crafts playgroup, children enjoy 35-minutes of Original Program fun and then, for the last 10-minutes, get an age-appropriate arts & crafts project to refine their sense of color and texture while they learn the Spanish or French words associated with recognizable visual symbols.

Original Program with Music & Movement (Spanish & French only)
In a Music & Movement playgroup, children enjoy 35-minutes of Original Program fun and then, for the last 10-minutes, are handed a musical instrument with which to develop tempo, verbal rhythm and motor skills while expanding their Spanish or French vocabulary.

Tots playgroups build more than language skills. As youngsters handle toys and visual aids, they develop motor skills and coordination. They imagine, invent and discover. Because they interact with other children, Tots builds social skills.

Other than the LWFC's own structured play technique and our "hello" and "goodbye" songs, which remain the same, in every new season students receive a new Songs & More Workbook/CD set! New visual aid games are also new every season so that each child adds to his repertoire of Spanish, French, Chinese, Italian or German and continues building new language skills.

Spanish for Tots®, French for Tots®, Chinese for Tots®, Italian for Tots® and German for Tots® brings your child into the world around him.

CHILDREN’S CLASSES / Spanish, French, Chinese, Italian or German

3 - 9 Years (1-Hour, 1-1/2 Hour, or 2-Hour Classes)
Students enrolled in Children’s classes are adjusted to separation and attend class by themselves.

In Children's classes students learn a new language in an immersion environment through age-appropriate action games, visual aids, LWFC vocabulary songs and playful and educational activities.

Because kids over the age of three are fully verbal, Children's classes are vocal and animated. Students are more aware of each other than in Tots, so they enjoy interacting as a group. Children speak (and laugh) aloud more than Tots.

In Children's classes, students start using phrases and sentences. Later, as their age and level progress, they learn stories and dialogues.

Children's classes are relaxed and happy because the students are constantly engaged in rapidly changing activities.

Other than the LWFC's own structured play technique and our "hello" and "goodbye" songs, which remain the same, in every new season students receives a new Songs & More Workbook/CD set as well as a new LWFC Storybook! New visual aid games are also new every season so that each child adds to his repertoire of Spanish, French, Chinese, Italian or German and continues building new language skills.

SUMMER CAMP-LIKE ENRICHMENT / Spanish or French

3 - 9 Years
Summer students are adjusted to separation and attend class by themselves.

El Club de los Niños and Le Club des Enfants language immersion fun lets youngsters enjoy activities while discovering the Spanish or French language and culture. No previous language experience required.

Buenos Dias Amigos! Bonjour Mes Amis!

It’s Educational and Fun! Learning Spanish or French with games and fun is the philosophy behind the LWFC’s school break enrichment program. Children absorb Spanish or French actively through LWFC structured playgroup lessons, games, arts and crafts, baking, movement, charades and original LWFC vocabulary-building songs -- new for each break.

Appropriate for all Levels. Since most children are beginners, the LWFC’s Camp-Like Enrichment program features introductory Spanish or French activities, lessons and games. But since every counselor is native fluent, they can respond to every child -- so mid and advanced level speakers can also practice their language skills.

Half-Day Activities. Youngsters begin by practicing the words and melodies to a happy new LWFC song. Then it’s off to the first playgroup lesson -- in Spanish or French -- with lots of fun and games. Afterwards it’s snack time, clay work, movement, more songs, musical instruments and more fun.

Seasonal Special Events. Niños, Niñas and Enfants enrolled in Summer can look forward to Special Events Days like Bastille Day, Spanish Day, Dress-up Day, Funny Nose Day, 70’s Day and Talent Shows. Children enrolled during

It’s Rewarding. By the end of an exciting program, children leave with a basis in a new language and the experience of a new culture.

Parents choose:
Full-Week Immersion:
5 Days a Week: Monday through Friday
Nearly like having your child live in a Spanish or French speaking country. By being immersed in a new language, 5 days a week, a child begins to think in that language and makes substantial progress naturally.

Part-Week Immersion:
2 Days a Week: Tuesday + Thursday
3 Days a Week: Monday + Wednesday + Friday
A solid grounding in Spanish or French, all the while enjoying language immersion fun. The more children attend, the more Spanish or French they learn.

Winter & Spring break students are adjusted to separation and attend class by themselves.

Winter break and Spring break are half-day Spanish or French camp-like enrichment programs blending with indoor fun and Spanish or French culture.

Campers assemble to draw and say good-morning to their friends. Then, they start with a Spanish or French lesson and sing-along using the LWFC’s original vocabulary-building songs. Then it’s learning through games! Everything is in Spanish or French so a child’s time is both fun and educational. Activities may include arts and crafts, movement, action and visual-aid games. Children also enjoy seasonal activities, characters, and on some days get to bake.
Midway, campers get a snack and spring water. Finally, a mini-lesson reviews that day's vocabulary.
