Storytime with Zippy
Join your Shayna's Village friends with PJ Library for a joyful story time filled with books, music, movement, and hands-on fun! Each interactive class brings stories to life through songs, sensory activities, and imaginative play while exploring Jewish values, holidays, traditions, and everyday life lessons.
Designed for little ones and their grownups to enjoy together, Storytime with Zippy encourages early literacy, language development, creativity, and social connection in a warm and welcoming community. Every session is an opportunity to learn, laugh, and create lasting memories together.
EVERY THURSDAY, 9:30AM-10:15AM FROM AUGUST 24, 2026 TO DECEMBER 7, 2026
Get ready to explore, discover, and play! This interactive class is filled with hands-on sensory experiences designed to spark curiosity and delight your baby's growing mind. Through messy (but manageable!) play, texture exploration, music, movement, bubbles, lights, scarves, simple sensory bins, and age-appropriate toys, babies are encouraged to investigate the world around them using all of their senses.
Each session is thoughtfully designed to support developmental milestones while allowing babies to learn naturally through play. Sensory-rich experiences help build fine and gross motor skills, early language, problem-solving abilities, body awareness, and social engagement—all while nurturing confidence and creativity.
Parents and caregivers are active participants, discovering fun, easy sensory activities they can recreate at home while enjoying meaningful bonding time with their baby. Classes also provide a welcoming space to connect with other families, share the joys and challenges of early parenthood, and build lasting friendships.
