Join Dannika Patterson for a warm and engaging reading of her picture book "I Can't Wait to Play!" This event celebrates the everyday magic of play, from peekaboo and dress-ups to imaginative laundry-basket adventures. Children will delight in exploring how every moment can be an opportunity to learn, grow, and connect.
Following the storytime, enjoy a series of story-inspired play activities designed to spark creativity and interaction among young children. This is a perfect event for parents and carers looking to nurture their child's early literacy and social skills in a fun, supportive environment.
This event is tailored for children aged 1 to 5 years and is part of the Children's Book Week celebrations, themed "Symphony of Stories," marking the 80th anniversary of the CBCA Book of the Year Awards. Bookings are essential to ensure a spot.
