Summer Half-Term break at home… doesn’t sound very exciting, even more so for your little ones! Don’t panic, we have selected loads of fun online activities and ideas to help them learn and practise French!
It’s not all about watching videos and sitting in front of a screen either – we hope that our selection will inspire you and your children to try new things: grow your own veg or test a new recipe…
