Baby Bookworms

Stories, music, and movement for our youngest readers!

Babies are learning from the moment they are born, and studies have shown that reading to infants helps promote literacy and independent reading later in life.  Our sessions will include stories just for babies, music to inspire and entertain, and movement activities perfect for little wrigglers!

Babies, caregivers, and older siblings are all welcome at Baby Bookworms!
