Baby Rhyme Time

Baby Rhyme Time

Baby Rhyme Time sessions are held for parents and babies 0-2 years old.

The Baby Rhyme Time program uses nursery rhymes and finger plays to develop your baby's language skills and introduces them to board books and simple stories to develop their literacy skills.

Come along to one session each week during school terms to have fun singing, clapping and dancing with other parents and babies.
