Babies begin using their brains at birth. Learn how you can support your baby’s brain development, and how everyday experiences provide important connections for your baby’s brain growth with Danielle Twemlow, from the USD 501 Parents as Teachers program. Staff from the Topeka & Shawnee County Public Library will also be on-site to sign up families for Baby Bookworms and Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library. This session shares information from the program “Better Brains for Babies.” This workshop is offered on Monday, May 4 from 10 to 11 a.m. and Wednesday, May 20 from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.
