To kick off our programs for the new year, we were pleased to have Nora Rhoades return for a Brainy Babies group on Monday evening, Jan. 15th. We were thrilled to have several excited mom and child pairs attend. Nora will be coming again the third Monday in February (19) and March (19). Please plan to join us! Brainy Babies is an interactive program for parents and children ages birth to 3 years old. It is a fun learning experience that offers simple ideas to incorporate at home too.
