An interactive, early literacy program especially developed for children from birth to 2 years of age. It's designed to show parents and carers how to develop their child's early literacy.
Talk, sing, rhyme, repeat, dance, read, shake musical instruments, beat to the rhythm, cuddle your child over a story, have fun, smile, make new friends and let all the little people know just how special they really are. Please note, Baby Rhyme Time runs from February to December each year.
