Babytime

Babies and young toddlers are just starting to understand the world and what’s going on around them. Join Miss Dawn for stories, songs, bounces, sensory play, and more! All of these elements help young children develop the skills necessary for learning to read. Each session will also feature tips for caregivers on how to set that early foundation for later reading.

Have an older sibling who needs to come along? Please bring a "lovey" for your older child to use as their "baby" during the lap sits and fingerplays. They love this!

This program is for ages 0 to 2 years. This program is designed for children and accompanying adults. Please plan to attend and be engaged with your child for this program. Drop offs will not be permitted.
