See you at the Library!

Hi! Just wanted to remind you that it's a Baby Play & Sign Saturday at the La Quinta Library tomorrow, July 17th at 10:30 am. Hope to see you there!


Lorraine has also been busy creating a webpage for kids (and parents) and has come up with a cool way to encourage kids to practice their speech homework. Visit http://www.teachnplaykids.com/ to take a look! The kids page has a recording button so you can record something for your baby or your child's speech and play it back to them. This is great way to encourage speech and language development.

We also would like to let you know that we have some On the Grow classes specifically for children ages 2 to 5 years scheduled this month. Please pass the word around.
