Baby Bounce is an early literacy program designed to encourage carers of babies to enjoy learning together.
Through songs, rhymes, and books we will help you to introduce your child to the rhythm and rhyme of language and, as research has proven, create a solid foundation for the development of your child’s language skills and their ability to learn to read.
You are welcome to join Baby Bounce at any participating library.
How do I find a Baby Bounce event?
“The ups and downs of our voices and our pauses and points of emphasis are like music, literally, to the ears of young children, and they love music. Simple tunes also make anything easier to remember, so it’s useful to read a book in exactly the same way every time, and to read the same book over and over again. The more quickly children pick up the “tune” of the words, the more they’ll remember the words and the more quickly they’ll have fun trying to ‘read’ the story themselves, with the same expression as we do” – Mem Fox
