 Free
Wriggle & Rhyme, Active Movement for Early Learning sessions
are about to begin at your local library starting Term 4
(12th October 2009)!
Active Movement is a SPARC (Sport and Recreation NZ)
initiative which aims to provide positive movement
experiences to stimulate development of both the brain and
the body. Each session will be based on the Active Movement
set of 14 activity guides using a range of music and
movement.
Libraries are working with their Council and Regional Sports
Trust to provide Wriggle & Rhyme sessions across the greater
Auckland region with the focus mainly for babies from birth
to two years.
Movement is a child’s first language, so it is important to
provide babies with whole body movements’ right from birth.
Parents and caregivers are invited to take part in these
free weekly sessions at their local library, where they can
also learn skills to put into practice at home.
While the activities are generally for babies, older pre-schoolers
are also welcome to attend Wriggle & Rhyme sessions, and
will benefit too.
50 community libraries are taking part in the Wriggle &
Rhyme programme across the greater Auckland region.
Programme days and times: (all sessions 30 minutes)
