"According to recent limited research, baby sign language can be an effective communication tool for young children, reports The Mayo Clinic."

Join us for "Little Hands Signing".  A fun storytime for children ages 2 & up that uses easy American Sign language in story and song. An easy take home craft helps reinforce the signs.

Wednesday, March 13th-Family Signs, March 27th-Playtime signs.

Come and learn together, there is no registration!

Lions, elephants, snakes oh my! Come and join in the fun, pretending and exercising. Animal stories will be read, and easy yoga poses and games will get kids and caregivers up and moving at this interactive story time!
