Coquitlam Public Library is welcoming families to Persian Storytime on Saturday mornings — starting this week — from 11:15 to 11:45 a.m.
Program assistant Jila Firouzmandi will share songs, puppets and felt board shows designed for newborns to six-year-olds. Families can enjoy beloved songs in Farsi and discover classic English rhymes and stories.
Storytimes give parents and children the opportunity to enjoy time with each other and to socialize with other families. The stories, songs and rhymes told during these programs help children develop language and pre-reading skills, while parents learn new ways to entertain their kids — without electronics.
The sessions begin Nov. 12 and run until Dec. 17 at the library’s City Centre branch.
For more information, phone Jila at 604-554-7334 or 604-937-4142.
