Afterschool Japanese class for 5 yr old?

Our son is very interested in learning Japanese after attending a camp this summer. We are looking for a weekday afterschool class. (Weekend classes unfortunately won't work.) Any recommendations for a fun afterschool Japanese language class for a five-year-old in Berkeley/Albany/El Cerrito/Oakland? Many thanks in advance!

I don't know about classes, but we hired Aki Mills for one on one tutoring and she was fantastic!  Fun, professional, kind. Her contact number is 925-890-1382. 

I'm not sure of a class, but let me know if you want to join me and a friend who is also half Japanese when we have play dates. We have been planning on doing Japanese stuff and speaking in Japanese. My son is 7 years old and her daughters are 5ish and 3-ish. contact me via my username if you're interested. I live in Oakland and she lives in Pt. Richmond.

Try Blue Moon Learning Center in Alameda. They have Japanese after-school classes on Tuesday and Fridays for children aged 5 and up.
