Join us for our Annual "Aventuras de Verano" Spanish Summer Arts Camp for Children at El Taller Latino Americano! Camp meets Monday through Friday from 9 AM to noon for six weeks during the summer. Children can register for a little as one week to the full six week summer season. Children participate in fun and engaging activities that encourage Spanish language development through visual arts, music, movement, storytelling, and games in an immersive environment. Children explore the cultures and customs of Spanish-speaking countries through weekly "travels" through every region of Latin America. Each day begins with an original art activity, inspired by the week's region. Projects range from Mexican luchador masks, pop-up cards about Argentinean Tango, Colombian molas, and eco-friendly Caribbean maracas made out of recycled materials. Through these projects, children develop an appreciation of arts and culture and are exposed to a wide array of Spanish vocabulary.

The Language Garden Preschool offers language immersion in French and Spanish. Teachers speak in the target language 95-100% of the time, providing a rich, bilingual experience for children at an age when they are developmentally best able to acquire a second language. There’s a world of difference between learning language through immersive methods and learning it through traditional methods. Infants learn naturally through play, exploration and everyday activities. They learn by listening, seeing, imitating, and practicing.
