WHAT WE DO

Le Papillon French Playschool is a foreign language enrichment program which

strives to provide a fun, interactive environment that supports French language

learning to children of all ages. While enhancing a young child’s

understanding of the world’s cultures and multi-ethnic fabric, Le Papillon uses methodology that includes drama, gesturing, music and
engaging materials.
At Le Papillon, children are encouraged to experience the

joy of learning French and are to be introduced to the world’s endless

diversity. Having Fun is the only requirement at Le Papillon French Language Enrichment Program.

So, amusons-nous bien (let’s have fun)!



















About Us


Named after the transfomative Butterfly,
Le Papillon is a creation from Heather Crawford Carlson's desire to expose her own children to a foreign language experience.  Heather holds a Master's in Education and is a licensed French and ESL teacher for k-12. Her background in Cultural Anthropology, living and teaching abroad in France and  various spots in the U.S. is woven into her teaching of French Language & Culture.  Heather has taught pre-school children up to adults in various settings, including  in the roles of pre-school teacher, environmental educator and programmer for International Students on University campuses. She embraces promoting cross-cultural interaction with a laid back approach and hopes to de-mystify foreign language learning by making it fun, approachable and applicable to our everyday experience.
