Fairfield a play and learn haven

By Mara Hernandez-Capili

Kids will always be kids. They love to play and play the whole day. Contrary to popular belief, having a kid is pure bliss. A kid's smile never fails to brighten a parent's day. As for me, my daughter Maiah is my greatest treasure. She makes me smile and makes me remember that life is sweet and beautiful. Through her jovial nature that I feel addicted to, I am always transported to a place full of love and goodness.

Our kids are heaven's gift to us, for us to protect and love for all the days of our lives. That is the reason why spending quality time with them is a big YES so as to let them feel valued and loved. Having a kid is just the greatest thing that can happen to a person and I am sure that everyone will agree when I say that it is just right to make them feel so.

Fairfield holds an event for moms and kids. The event is called "the Play & Learn Story time". The event encourages parents and their kids to bond and at the same time learn. Witnessing events like this is a great pleasure; it provides activities that kids will surely love. It is another way of introducing new things to kids, at the same time giving parent the time to play with their loveable kids. During Story time kids are captivated by how the storyteller delivers the story. How the story is delivered is one of the most important things a storyteller should keep in mind. Kids are great impersonators and absorbers, every detail matters to them.

Story telling is for kids alone, they are required to enter the premises alone. Having kids engaged in this kind of events is one way of teaching them the benefits of reading, and that reading is a social thing. Parents are given stuff to do while they wait for their kids, simple lively hood and parenting tips are given to them.

The event requires an entrance fee; the fee is for the continuous improvement of public libraries in the state.
