Games to Play with Baby Song and Rhyme Class with Marty Layne

Marty Layne is a long-standing presence in the parenting community of Victoria. Her classes have been held for years around town, teaching moms and little ones songs, finger plays and rhymes to sing while passing away the afternoon and bonding with baby. As a certified baby massage instructor, she also teaches how to use physical contact to secure your relationship with your wee one and to let your little person feel comfortable with his or her body. She is also a homeschooling advocate and has written Learning At Home: A mother's guide to homeschooling to share her experience and help other mothers who plan to homeschool.

This multi-talented, multi-tasking mama is now making and selling needle felted animals and teaching classes at local wool shops.

Here's what people had to say about Marty's class:

Marty was fun! She kept our babies engaged and made us each feel like we were part of the class. Thanks for the chance to see what her teaching is like. -- Karen

This class surprised me. Even circle time veterans like me and Natasha learned some new songs. The "here are baby's fingers, and here are baby's toes" rhyme was her favourite. She still loves it when we do that one and the tickle comes at the end. We love Marty's book of games, too. -- Erica
