Language Stars:
Language Stars in Illinois provides fun, full language immersion programs for children (ages 1-10) in Spanish, French, Italian, German and Mandarin Chinese. Our mission is to revolutionize how and when American children learn foreign language to foster a future generation of multilingual Americans. We have eight Chicagoland locations: Arlington Heights, Barrington, Deerfield/Northbrook, Hinsdale/Oakbrook, Homewood/Flossmoor, Lincoln Park, Naperville, Wilmette/Evanston, IL.

Programs: Play-based, full immersion programs in small groups of 4-8 children in Spanish, French, German, Italian and Mandarin Chinese in three exciting formats (Kids Only, Parents & Tots, Summer Camp).

Spanish immersion - With over 25 native Spanish teachers from over 10 countries, we are thrilled to encompass multiple accents and cultures all within our larger Spanish umbrella! Our teachers focus their attention on engaging children through games, skits, art projects, stories and snack all completely in Spanish.

Kids Only: Programs include 3 to 5 Years, 5 to 8 Years, 8 to 10 Years (advanced). Children climb the Language Stars Learning Ladder building valuable language skills with each step up. Children absorb the foreign language through interactive games, arts & crafts, drama, puppet shows, singing, cooking projects and more, presented entirely in the foreign language. Children learn to communicate actively in age-appropriate groups of 4-8 children. We track and communicate individual progress regularly.

Parents & Tots (1-3 Years): Toddlers and parents or caregivers learn together, absorbing the foreign language through a developmentally appropriate mix of movement, songs, puppet shows, art projects and more, presented entirely in the foreign language. Where possible, we will tailor our programs toward separate 12-24 month and 2-3 year age groups.

Summer Camp: Join us for fun and games every morning! Children ages 3½ to 8 years love our indoor and outdoor activities including water games, relay races, arts & crafts, cooking projects, treasure hunts and interactive snack time. We offer 3 additional types of summer programs. Scroll up to read about Parent & Tots or Kids Only.
