For ages 6-24 months includes songs, fingerplays, and a story. The program lasts approximately twenty minutes. The purposes of this program are to provide early experience for children with the spoken word, provide a chance for parents/caregivers to share activities with children, and create enjoyment for all during story time. It is very helpful for the adults to model the activities by participating with their child.
