Librarians in public libraries lead a hectic life and children's librarians spend a considerable amount of time conducting programmes for children and sometimes parents as well!
One of the more challenging programmes to conduct is "Fun with Tots". It's a 30 min programme for parents & their toddlers of 3 or younger. We pack it with stories, songs & rhymes to help parents teach early literacy skills to their little tikes. It takes energy to interact with curious, "hyperactive" toddlers and also communicate intellectual tips to parents. From time to time, there'll be this one kid who has just learned to run and insists on demonstrating his skill to everyone! It's always a joy though and we have many parents who come back for more.
