A friend of mine told me about this variation to Duck, Duck, Goose for learning French. You and your children can sit in a circle like normal. One person stands up and taps everyone on the head as they walk by, and instead of saying "Duck", they say, "Bonjour!"(hello) And instead of saying "Goose," they say, "Au revoir!" (goodbye).
Whoever they say "Au revoir" to then jumps up and chases the other person around the circle trying to touch them before their spot is taken.
The great thing about this, is that you can modify the game to teach any pair words in French like, "merci" (thank you) and "de rien" (you're welcome).
