Les lundis des tout-petits—a free weekly story session in French—launches Monday at the National Arts Centre's Peter A. Herrndorf Place.

Luana, the facilitator, guides young children through tales set in magical worlds. The hour-long sessions blend storytelling with crafts and games, designed to help kids identify and understand their emotions while engaging their imaginations.

According to the NAC's description, Luana's work draws on emotional intelligence: children learn to notice how feelings manifest in their bodies, appreciate what emotions teach them, and harness their sensitivity and intuition.

The event is free and welcomes bilingual and francophone families. No tickets are required—just show up.

Monday, June 15, 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. at Peter A. Herrndorf Place, 1 Elgin Street.
