Required pre-requisite: Hindi for Tots! (1A)-this is required in order to ensure learners will be comfortable in the class and give them a chance to ease in to Hindi before committing to the longer course. Learners will also be introduced to two Hindi vowels ( अ  and आ) and related vocabulary. Drop outs from the longer course do affect the class environment as classes are kept purposefully small. Please keep this in mind.

In this class, young learners will be gently introduced to Hindi through verbal interaction, song, finger play, pictures, and props. 
Learners will be encouraged to interact not only with the instructor but also their fellow classmates during class to not only practice Hindi but also socialization skills. Over the course of 12 weeks students will become more familiar with basic introductory phrases, colors, vowel related vocabulary (mainly food and animals) through the varied play. We will also be reading a book together "Shubh Raatri Dost/ Good Night Friend" by Nidhi Chanani which all learners will be required to purchase as part of this class.

The class will be structured as follows:

Week 1: Review of 1A materials/topics, 1 new vowel and related vocabulary introduction, and continued practice of greeting and counting songs
Week 2: Review of week 1 and 1 new vowel and related vocabulary introduction, and continued practice of greeting and counting songs
Week 3:  Review of weeks 1-2 and  introduction & practice of colors
