Children learn by playing.......
The Parent / Toddler Workshop is for children ages 18 months to 3 years and their parents. Children and parents learn together in various interest areas set up as an early childhood environment on the 2nd floor of the library. Information is shared about child development and guidance, nutrition, health, community resources, music and movement, and early literacy.

Why Does the Library Offer Parent/Toddler Workshop?
1. To assist parents and caregivers in the role of their child's first teacher.
2. To interactively "play" (which is how children learn) with their child in a developmentally appropriate early childhood environment--THE LIBRARY!!!
3. To help children function in a social situation and build creativity and critical thinking skills.
4. To use library materials at home and extend library learning.
5. To talk with other parents, caregivers and local resource professionals
Parent/Child Workshops are an open program, so it can become a little crowded. For more information, please contact Nancy R Wood, Early Childhood & Outreach Librarian. 951-845-3222 email: beaumontlib@telis.org ~ Siblings are welcome even if they are younger or older.
