Bookclub for Babies: Rain Rain Go Away!

This month momstown Mississauga moms and their babies read a very timely book titled Rain Rain Go Away provided by Scholastic Canada.

The month of May in Mississauga was indeed very wet! With a snowstorm/hail on Mother's Day to the crashing thunderstorm that ended the month on May31st, it has indeed been a wet and rainy month.

Our Babies enjoy reading with their mamas and singing in our circle time! momstown Mamas spend  program time  singing classic songs, learning new fingerplays and rhymes as well as reading great books (like this one). Every month one lucky family wins a copy of the book to take home.




 Do you have a new baby at home? If so consider joining us for fun and educational programming like this one! We offer lots of things for toddlers and older kids as well - up to age 6.

The cost of a membership to momstown is only $45/year and includes all the programming, plus access to our member only discounts, exclusive member calendar and message board. Join today!

Books for Babies in Mississauga

Last month momstown Mississauga mamas gathered for a special Baby Book club at our Baby Basics group. Scholastic Canada provides the book for this monthly event for moms and babies aged 0-12months.


Our lucky winning family!
momstown Mississauga meets weekly at the Taima Zone in West Mississauga for our Baby basics group. Monthly we hold our Books for Babies event where we read stories mixed with rhymes, finger plays, sing some silly songs and of course it wouldn't be a great circle time without getting out the parachute! 



Reading aloud to your baby is a fantastic bonding time that stimulates your child at the same time. Benefits of reading to your baby:
  • teach your baby about communication
  • introduce ideas such as stories, numbers, letters, colors, and shapes in a fun way
  • build listening, memory, and vocabulary skills
  • bonding time for you and your baby
  • help to build routines that provide your baby with security in their daily lives
At momstown we meet 20+ times monthly for fun and educational events such as this. Join us for a month long trial membership, or buy your membership here.  At only $45/year per family it is a fantastic value. What are you doing this week with your baby?
