Play With Me

October 30, 2019 @ 10:00 am - 11:00 am

Woman reading to infant

Play With Me is a series of parent-and-child interactive playgroups designed for infants and toddlers. Each session is an hour long, with infant-toddler specialists there to support and guide parents as they engage in activities with their child.

The playgroup utilizes recent research on the neuroscience behind child brain development and Ellen Galinsky’s book, ‘The Mind in the Making’. The Five Building Basics are:

  • Look: What catches your baby’s eye?
  • Follow: Let children lead the way.
  • Chat: Talk out loud and together.
  • Take Turns: Back and forth interaction.
  • Stretch: Make the moment last longer.

This program is brought to families at no charge through a collaboration between the Kailua-Kona Public Library, the Kona Elks Lodge 2016, and the Kona Family Literacy and Interaction Program.

If you need an auxiliary aid/service or other accommodation due to a disability, please contact the library at least 7 days prior to the program date.We will make every attempt to fulfill all requests for accommodations. All programs are subject to change. For a list of upcoming library events, visit test-library.ehawaii.gov/events
