"My child has a great time at rhymetime. It has a lovely relaxed atmosphere in the cheery children's part of the library.
I think it is great that this is provided for our children for free. Thank you!" |
Sessions last between 20 minutes and half an hour. They are friendly, informal sessions where you can join in with action nursery rhymes and songs.
Rhymetimes are a good for helping with your child's language development. By using simple musical instruments and performing action songs babies develop language and rhythm.
They are an opportunity for you to learn some new rhymes to share at home with your child.
At the end of the sessions there is always the opportunity to borrow some books, story or music tapes and CD's.
