Description

We intend these Read4Climate (R4C) rack card and poster designs to help libraries share and promote the many ways we can support our communities to learn about and respond to the climate crisis. We hope they provide talking points, conversation starters, information, ideas/possibilities, and encouragement - in a positive way. You can add your logo and/or QR code and print or share in various ways.

Hippie Dippy Babytime

lorolai

Description

Value-added programming for new parents/caregivers. When a parent manages to get the baby packed into the car, drives around looking for a parking spot and get settled in the library as the good bye songs begin, there is little reward for the effort.
If we can layer and expand the program to offer a more fulfilling experience, while at the same time allowing families to practice self-care, we just might bring a little extra joy into the community as a whole. 
my teenagers would roll their eyes and say "hippie dippy babytime" when I talk about my job at home and I loved this and decided to use it as the title for my presentation. I like to think of libraries as holistic literacy co-ops!!

Value-added programming for new parents/caregivers. When a parent manages to get the baby packed up and into the car and then drives around looking for a parking spot and unloads the baby into the library only to be 15 minutes late and get settled just as the good bye songs begin, there is little reward for the effort. If we can layer and expand the program to offer a more fulfilling experience, while at the same time allowing families practice self-care, we just might bring a little extra joy into the community as a whole.
