Bring your little Valentine to a FREE Story Time DEMO Class!
February 14th at 11:00am
in Santa Monica
Everyone and all ages welcome.
RSVP by calling 310-998-1981 today!
 This 6-week session runs 3/7 - 4/11
for 0-12 month olds
Early literacy outlines what children know about reading and writing before they can actually read and write. Concepts like 'Book Awareness' and 'Print Awareness' are central to building your child's literacy. We say that learning how to read can be -and should be- fun!
It's never too early to encourage a love of reading in your child. Through this six-part, hands on workshop, you'll discover new stories and learn how to develop your child's book and 'Cultural Literacy,' which we at ALB define as 'having the ability to see that all cultures have equal value.' This is learned through the images we see and the protagonists in our books. The workshop is open to parents with children ages 0-12 months. During each session, Christabel Nsiah-Buadi will read books featuring new faces and different cultures. You'll have an opportunity to read one on one to your child. We'll also give you tips on how to peak your baby's interest and keep the story fresh for you!
Call 310-998-1981 to register for this session.

Find out how emotions and discipline are shaping your child's Intelligence and life. Intelligence is the machinery that drives our ongoing growth and well being. It powers our actions and dreams. It directs our work, play, love and relationships. It shapes who we become year after year, decade after decade. Your baby is learning 24 hours a day! Because emotions affect the brain, how you respond to your baby's feelings can nurture their intelligence. Learn to raise an independent critical thinker. Punishment/Reward Systems vs Natural Consequences. What is compassionate discipline? Establishing good habits now will eliminate future power struggles while helping your children to gain valuable skills that will benefit them later in life and in the workplace.

Have Milk, Will Travel: Adventures in Breastfeeding
The Pump Station & Nurtury™ founders Corky Harvey and Wendy Haldeman wrote the forewords for Have Milk, Will Travel: Adventures in Breastfeeding, a new book of laugh-out-loud stories about life as the one-stop milk shop. And even better: half of the stories come from our The Pump Station™ moms!
This month's excerpt comes from Maria Polonchek, who blogs at
writingbetweenfriends.com. When she was pregnant, Maria writes, "I assumed breastfeeding would come easily and that I might even have moments of euphoria I've heard described by other mothers. Even when I found out I was having twins, when people really started to question my decision, I didn't think twice. Two boobies, two babies, right? I couldn't get more efficient if I tried."
"I was not prepared for the phenomenon that is 'over-production."
Check out Have Milk, Will Travel, available at your local The Pump Station & Nurtury store for the rest of this milky story. Click here to get your copy today!
