A song, a stretch and a rhythm instrument can all be part of an early-literacy program at Austin Public Library. Music & Movement invites young children to sing, dance and explore sound; the library connects those activities with listening, movement, social skills and new vocabulary.
Toddler Music Circle is listed for children ages 1–3 at both Central Library and Milwood Branch. Milwood has two morning circles on each of its listed November dates, while the Central gatherings take place in the Children’s Area on the third floor south.
Little Walnut Creek Branch lists Spanish-English Music & Movement on four Sunday afternoons in November. The November 1 session brings singing, dancing and rhythm-instrument exploration into both languages, with babies, toddlers and preschoolers among the listed age groups. It is a different choice from the toddler-specific circle for a family looking for a session that includes younger babies.
