If you are looking for a good enrichment program for your children, check the children classes at the French Academy DC.
The French Academy DC, MD, VA was created by former teachers of the Alliance Française and offer a wide range of immersion classes with experienced teachers.

Here are the classes offered in Chevy Chase:
- Les moineaux (12-36 months),
- Les poussins (3-5 years)
- Les Momes (6-8 years)
- Les grands (9-12 years)
- Les P'tits Francais (7-12 ans): pour enfants bilingues
- Thematic workshops such as Halloween, International-Day, Christmas.

Link to their children class schedule:

During the classes, your children will meet new friends (hand puppets) and will have a lot of fun. The teachers use authentic materials: children books, songs, TV programs, videos, plus a lot of interactive games and activities that make learning grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation very fun!
Since they are native speakers, the children learn the right pronunciation from the start. You don't want them to start speaking with a foreign accent and have difficulties to get rid of it later on. I personally like the approach. They don't use flash cards or vocabulary out of context but the really interact with the kids while playing.
