Caregivers and their infants can enjoy this lapsit-style storytime program filled with fingerplays, stories, and songs focused on early literacy. Come meet other caregivers of little ones in the area while you spend time with your little one. Intended age: newborns - beginning walkers (as this is a lapsit-style program).
Baby Bookworms is a free, interactive lapsit storytime designed for infants and their caregivers at the East Regional Library in Durham. The session focuses on early literacy through simple books, rhythmic songs, and gentle fingerplays that you can easily replicate at home. This program is designed specifically for newborns up to beginning walkers. Because it is a lapsit program, older toddlers might find it hard to sit still, so it is best to leave this one for the littlest ones. Registration is not required, and there is plenty of free parking in the library lot. You do not need to bring anything other than a small blanket if you prefer your baby not to sit directly on the carpet. While this event takes place on a Monday morning, it makes a wonderful addition to your weekend planning if you want to ease into the upcoming week with a low-stress, educational activity that gets you out of the house.
