Spanish for Parents and Toddlers
It is never too early for your toddler to learn a new language. Spanish speaking skills are taught in the same way that a child learns his/her first language by watching and listening to Mommy or Daddy and interacting with daily objects. This class will teach basic colors, counting and numbers, shapes, songs and greetings. Come prepared to participate (as Mommy or Daddy learn Spanish too), and become part of your child's development into a second language. Fee is $35 per family for children ages 4 and up.
