Anyone know any of any language courses for 3-year olds, French or Arabic? Or summer fun, play, enrichment programs perhaps, done in those languages?

Absolutely - get em whilst they're young! There used to be the multilingual network which promoted private playgroups etc but it's not nearly as active as it used to be - try their website though http://www.themlnetwork.com/cms/ you might get lucky. Also I know the Dar El Ilm & the Arabic Language Centre does all sorts of activities in both Arabic and French for youngsters. Unfortunately your child is still too young for the Alliance Francaise, but when your child is 5, they offer courses. All the best and be sure to drop feedback if you find anything you pursue.

Thanks solaris. I will look into it. Why livelytrish, that's when you learn language best of course and is the best time to learn multiple languages ! Isn't that when you learned to speak? Childhood? By "course", I would assume any "classes" for a 3-year old would be play based. That is what I'm looking into for a child who has already begun learning a second language through full immersion during the school year. Any other suggestions? Arabic or French playgroups?

There's something called Baby Arabia at Favourite Things in Dubai Marina Mall - I think it goes upto age 3, but I've never attended a class so don't know what it involves. Contact Favourite Things for details: http://www.favouritethings.com/33/location-contact-details
