Toddler Time – Ashburton

What to Expect

Toddler Time at Ashburton Library offers a delightful and interactive environment where your little ones can socialise with peers and develop essential early literacy and communication skills. These sessions are designed specifically for toddlers aged 12 months to 3 years, providing a perfect opportunity for your child to engage in fun learning activities.

Each session is lively and welcoming, encouraging children to explore stories, songs, and rhymes that stimulate their imagination and language development. Parents and caregivers can enjoy watching their toddlers interact and grow in confidence within a supportive community setting.
