One week of Spanish Summer Camp at Viva el Español for one child in grade K-5 in Lafayette.

Give your child the gift of foreign language!
We believe that learning a foreign language in the pre-school and elementary school years is an essential part of a child's education and development. Today's children need to be prepared to live and work in a global context.

Don't wait...
Scientific studies (PDF) indicate that there are sound physiological and psychological reasons to initiate foreign language study with children at an early age. Cognitive research shows that very young children learn language easily due to the elasticity of the brain. In fact, this research states that the learning window, when the peak acquisition of a foreign language occurs, is between birth and ten years of age. Yet, for most students, foreign language is introduced and formally studied when they are twelve years of age or older.
