Open the Door to a Second Language: Check Out French Footprints From Canadian Parents for French

As parents, we want to prepare our children to live their best lives in this global world. That means giving them the tools they need to thrive, like the opportunity to learn another language! The benefits of being bilingual are numerous, from easier travel to interesting job opportunities to cultivating greater empathy. Many families prioritize learning French as their second language, and French Footprints, from Canadian Parents for French, offers a myriad of resources. Thankfully, every parent can help their child succeed, even if you’re not bilingual yourself.

Canadian Parents for French is a nationwide organization that provides opportunities to discover, explore, and master the French language. Maybe your high schooler wants to dive deep into French to give themselves more opportunities, or your grade schooler needs an extra challenge. If you have little ones, you also might want to begin exposing your children to the French language now, while their little brains can soak it all in!

If you don’t speak French well (or at all!), you might be wondering how to even begin.

Start by checking out the French Footprints podcast! It’s designed to give you the information you need and the confidence to make it all happen.

Then take a look at the blog and the magazine to find a variety of ways to introduce French to your little ones. Remember, the best learning happens organically as children interact with those who love them.

You can even sign up for virtual French classes. These parent and child classes are less like school and more like a family hobby! They feature interactive, fun activities you can do with your kids.

At French Footprints, you’ll also find audio resources, educational shows, video games, a French Footprints Parent Kit, and lots more. Don’t wait! Get started this September and explore the many options of a second language.

Help your kids embrace our cosmopolitan world with confidence! Check out French Footprints from Canadian Parents for French today. Bonne chance!
