Bonjour mes amis!

It's been a while since we had a meetup. I am scheduling two meetups, both on Saturdays, as I am progressing in my pregnancy & I could use my hubby's help during it :) For these meetups, they will be for 30 minutes and you and your babies and/or tots will be: (a) singing easy & short French songs, with hand gestures you'll find addictive and fun, (b) dance to the beat of favorite French children songs, and (c) engage each other and babies/tots in French.

Following the half-hour sessions, feel free to enjoy each other's company and the fantastic park, it has restrooms, swings and play areas for various age groups. Also, there are benches and covered seating areas. It is also adjacent to Madison's downtown central business district - which is alot of fun as well.

*Also, these events, being on a Saturday, could be a great way to get daddy involved too! :)

A bientot!

For this series of events, I intend to introduce various games (hand gesture games), as well as identify babies/tots' favorite toys in French (optional), have them play with them, as well as mix in some French songs/rhymes that we could sing to and basically have a fun with. What a way to take advantage of the the morning sun and the lush park grass. Feel free to bring food for your little ones to picnic with and of course, feel free to enjoy the park, which has wonderful swings (for babies & tots) and baby and tot sections of play activities. This is a half hour class, followed by free play time for members & babies/tots.

Also, if for some of you a different date and time works best, please advise and I'll see what can be worked out based on your feedback.

A bientot & can't wait to catch up with you in late Spring!

Bonjour mes amies,

I am having so much fun meeting all of you and I realize some of you can make some events and not others due to timing, etc. That is the reason I like to change the pace now and then and have different dates, events and times set up. For now, I would like to take a two month break and then jump back in May with fun French playgroup sessions, every other week for two months.

We will be building up each other's French vocabulary, which I will keep track of on the website, as we uncover the French words behind the English ones in the Picture books. We'll later have some game activities to test our recall of those words.

**Recommended:
Please start investing in a French-English dictionary. Any should do. I use the following: "Larousse Student Dictionary, English-French, French-English."
