Tummy Time is an opportunity for little ones to develop early literacy and social skills while giving caregivers a space to commiserate and celebrate developmental milestones.

Tummy Time will be on Wednesdays @ 10:15-11:15 a.m. in the Beatley Central Large Meeting Room (or outdoors weather permitting). The program will start with a storytime for babies, followed by a time for caregivers to chat. This program is geared for those 12 months old or younger and their caregivers. Older siblings may attend; however, no additional activities will be provided.

Contact Ruth Rasby (rrasby@alexlibraryva.org) or Amanda Kite (akite@alexlibraryva.org) for more information.
