First 5 Forever – Grandparents Day

Join us for a heartwarming First 5 Forever story time session as we celebrate the special bond between grandparents and their precious little ones! This Grandparents Day, we’re honouring the wonderful relationships that span generations through the magic of stories, songs, and rhymes.

What Makes This Session Special:
Grandparents hold a unique place in children’s lives – they’re the keepers of family stories, the ones with extra time for cuddles during books, and often the most enthusiastic participants in silly songs and rhymes. This special session is designed to celebrate and strengthen these beautiful intergenerational connections.

Why First 5 Forever?
This session supports early literacy development while celebrating the vital role grandparents play in children’s learning journeys. Research shows that children benefit enormously from having multiple caring adults involved in their literacy experiences, and grandparents often bring patience, wisdom, and enthusiasm that creates magical reading moments.
