Books for Babies at momstown Mom & Baby Program

This month at momstown Mississauga's Books for Babies program, our littlest hockey fans got to read My First Hockey Book by Ian Crysler.

March's Books for Babies

The book features simple text, and pictures of real kids playing hockey. Our babies loved the bright pictures and simple story. Early literacy is important did you know it's never too early to read to your baby? Some parents even start while the baby is still in the womb.


Our winning family this month was thrilled with the Scholastic Baby book of the month! 


We meet monthly for a fun story and circle time, read books, do fingerplays and get to know one another at our signature program Baby Basics! It's a great way to meet new friends and interact with other moms with young babies!

momstown Mississauga is a superb value for you and your baby, we offer a variety of events each month to get you out and enjoying different venues around our city, at a very reasonable cost of only $45/year per family! Buy your membership here.

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?
