Description
French Playdate was founded by a French-born mother of two concerned about the bilingualism and biculturalism of her French-American children. These playdates are for little French-speakers who want a chance to play in French with other kids. Beginning speakers are welcome but know that all activities will be in French.
School-aged kids ages 5 to 10 are welcome during school vacations and holidays for playdates that focus on a French character or author. Older kids ages 11 to 17 are welcome one Saturday per month to talk about photography in French. No need to be a photographer or to own a camera to participate.
