Immersive Learning at Le Petit Jardin Preschool
Marin Mommies presents a shout-out article from Le Petit Jardin (LPJ), a French immersion preschool with locations in Marin and Sonoma.
Le Petit Jardin (LPJ) is a unique preschool program that combines loving childcare with daily experiences in and around the French and Francophone cultures. Children are introduced to sounds and words of the French language through song, nursery rhymes, stories and general everyday interactions. As children are exceptional language learners by nature, this immersive environment enables them to quickly become familiar with French and begin to know how to use it for themselves.
Our days here at preschool are rooted in the idea that a child learns through play and exploration! We lead children each day through a fun variety of arts and crafts, story time, classical dance (ballet), cooking, science activities, music, outdoor and free play time. These experiences are guided in French to familiarize children with numbers, letters, colors, shapes, and other early vocabulary.
We recognize that each child has unique talents, learning style and personality. LPJ is committed to ensure optimal social, emotional and linguistic growth. Classes are kept to a low student-teacher ratio for happy, healthy learning! Popular childhood songs and nursery rhymes from France will soon become some of your child’s favorites!
Le Petit Jardin is now accepting applications for the 2025–2026 school year.
Le Petit Jardin is located at 201 Seminary Drive, Mill Valley, 1 St Vincent Drive, San Rafael, and 542 First St. East, Sonoma. For more info, visit www.lpjkids.com.
