Our Latest News
FREE TODDLER FUN AT THE COMMUNITY LIBRARY
On Thursdays we run two sessions of Sing Song Time, 10 – 10:30am and 10:45 to 11:15am. Sing Song Time is a first library activity for under threes and their carers. The aim is for the children to join in the singing, as well as have fun. We sing familiar songs every week and the children are encouraged to join in both the music and movement, gradually building up their confidence.
On Tuesdays we run Story / Song Time from 10:15 to 10:45am. We welcome toddlers and their carers into a warm, friendly group. We provide rhythm and rhyme making activities alongside both new and familiar songs, and an introduction into the world of exciting and boundless stories beyond home provision.
Come and join us for some fun with your little ones!
For anyone who cannot make it on a Thursday or who would like a chance to see what we do, here is a link to the video which we made during our lockdown period. https://vimeo.com/401404135/ac29defe4d
