  1. Thank you for a wonderful blog, chock-full of ideas! You've given this new-to-baby-storytime librarian plenty of material to digest! I'd like to call our weekly lapsit storytime Wee Reads, please let me know if you have any objection.

  2. Thanks, Michelle! You're more than welcome to use it. I got the idea from someone else (I can't remember who) when I started the program at my old library. My new library called it Baby Storytime, and while that was an apt name, it wasn't fun enough for me, so I changed it. Good luck with your storytimes!
