Italian Circle Time

Valentina Medda

Corte Madera - $130

Join Valentina for Italian circle time! These fun and interactive sessions will introduce the musicality of the Italian language to children aged 0-4.

Circle time provides an opportunity for young children to come together as a group both for an engaging activity and to practice important social skills like taking turns, active listening, sharing ideas, and expressing themselves. It’s also a wonderful opportunity to introduce the basics of a foreign language in a playful way - through joy, fun, and active participation.

Lively songs, playful movements, props, simple books, and rhymes will help your little ones to become familiar with everyday Italian words, colors, numbers, greetings, animals, days of the week, and pronunciation.  

Please ensure that an adult accompanies and provides continuous supervision.
