This 5-week series will focus on learning the basics of the Italian language through hands-on activities like cooking Italian recipes, learning songs, art, story time, music and games. Kids will also learn about Italian life, history and culture, music, art, and sports. Everyone will be encouraged to speak Italian throughout the series, and interact with one another practicing mini-dialogues. By the end, kids will have a better understanding of 'la bella lingua' and 'la dolce vita!'
