Child Month Logo

In celebration of Child Month, the Department of Children and Family Services will be hosting a special Bedtime Stories event for families and children at Books & Books on Wednesday, May 27th at 6PM.

This year, the theme for Child Month is Time with Your Child-A Wise Investment, and in keeping with this idea, the main purpose of Bedtime Stories at Books & Books will be to show parents the benefits of Making Bedtime a Family Time by reading to their children.

Miriam Foster, Programmes Officer of the Empowerment and Community Development Agency, will be giving parents useful tips on making stories exciting, getting their kids involved in story time, and creating alternatives to television. Each tip will be demonstrated by the reading of a great children’s book. Following the presentation, parents will be given the chance to practice the tips by choosing a book from the extensive Books & Books selection to read to their children. Gentle lullabies will play in the background while parents and children enjoy quality family time.

Milk and cookies for the first 30 children will be provided by the Department of Children and Family Services. Miriam Foster has also chosen the selection of children’s books that follow her tips, and these will be available for purchase at a 5% discount on the evening of the event.

This event is free and open to the public. For up to date information on all Books & Books events in Grand Cayman, visit www.booksandbooks.com
