There are many benefits to exposing children to a different languages. Our story times are the perfect setting, we sing songs with actions that children are familiar with in English and the stories are read in French or Spanish and in English. The sessions are interactive as children ‘help’ me read the books.

A little hedgehog is sad because he cannot get anyone to hug him? It is so unfair. He asks around for a hug but the squirrels refuse, the kittens as well. He asks his mom why he had to be so prickly! Because of that, he cannot hug his mom the same way the other animals do. His mom shows him how brave and important hedgehogs have been throughout history. Then she tells him that hedgehogs do not hug but they have a soft tummy for tickles. The other animals can see and hear little hedgehog laughing and they want to know why they have hugs instead of tickles.
