Mother Goose on the Loose

Friday, February 24, 2012, 11:00am - 11:45am

Join the happy circle with Kay Lyons at a lap-sit story hour for children age 3 and under with a grown-up every Friday morning. Each session is 45 minutes, with half an hour of structured activity and about fifteen minutes of visiting time.Rhymes, songs, and movement games make up this story time style popularized by author Betsy Diamant-Cohen. Kay reads books, leads the group in hand rhymes, and uses puppets to teach animal sounds and other concepts new to the very  young. Children and grown-ups shake rattles, tap rhythm sticks, wave colored scarves, ring bells, and do knee bounces to simple sing-along tunes that everybody learns together. You will find yourself singing them in the car, and at bath time, bed time, or any time you need a song.No sign-up is required, and the program is free of charge thanks to the generosity of the Friends of Greenfield Public Library. 11:00 am. Held in the Children's Room at Greenfield Public Library, 402 Main Street in Greenfield. 413-772-1544 x 5
