I wanted to share some Youtube Channels that you might not know about yet. Keep in mind these are not your typical English – French channels for learners. These are videos used by French adults and children. This list is also not exhaustive; it is just an attempt to share a few links with you all. If you would like to share about other channels you enjoyed, please do so in the comments! If you have requests for specific subjects, comment as well to let me know.
