Baby
Story Time
Baby Story Time is
a twenty minute story time for babies and their grown-up one on one.
Because we know that reading at
an early age helps with language development, we will read books, sing, and learn finger plays.
Older siblings are welcome but must bring their own “baby.”
There will be two
sessions of Baby Story Time, each lasting for six weeks, beginning on: Friday,
Sept. 26, @ 10 a.m. OR 11 a.m.
Please pick the
time that best suits you. Registration is required. First day to sign
up is Sept. 8, 2008.
Please
call the library at 242-2391 or
contact
kidsroom@mifflincountylibrary.org
Library Play Time
Library Play Time is a play
group for little tots ages one to three years old. We will play for
an hour and then sing and learn new finger stories. Parents will be
given hand-outs based on weekly child development themes.
Dates and times to be
announced.
Registration is limited and
required.
Please call the library

A
Few Things about
Junior
Book Group
We
will not allow anyone younger than 9 to join Junior Book Group. The main
reason is our library policy states “Children the age of eight (8) and
under are not permitted in the library without a parent/custodian who is
sixteen (16) years of age or older.”
Parents are not required to stay while Junior Book Group is in
session.
