Join Julia for Babies, Books, and Blankets, a lap-sit for babies and toddlers, 0-24 months.
Bring your babies and a comfortable blanket to sit on. Together, we will read, sing, rhyme, and play to encourage family bonding and help build our littlest library users’ early literacy skills.
Mahalo nui to the Friends of the Libraries, Kona (F.O.L.K.) for sponsoring this program!
