Little Lambs is a new group which starts in September.
This group is a very informal group where babies and toddlers and their parents, grandparents or carers can get to know each other, and the youngsters can play together.
There will be toys, books, music, songs, messy play and snacks to enjoy.
Come along with your little ones and try out this new group<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
