It is never too soon to share the wonderful world of literature with children. Lapsit Time is a nine week series exploring language and literature through rhythm and rhyme, finger plays and action games, and very simple stories and books for very young children (birth through 23 months) accompanied by their enthusiastic adult companions (one child per lap, please!)
Each program will last about 20 minutes, with time for parents and children to enjoy one another’s company and the library’s resources afterwards. The series will be held Tuesday mornings at 10:30 am from October 2nd through November 27. Sign-up is required.
