Boppin’ Babies support Cambodian orphans


Boppin’ Babies support Cambodian orphans

Boppin' Babies music groups for babies and toddlers is offering school holiday programs in January 2011 at Tarragindi to raise funds for Sunrise Children's Villages in Cambodia. 

The 30 minute sessions for children under four years of age include singing, moving to music, playing instruments and musical play on Tuesday 11th, Thursday 13th, Tuesday 18th and Thursday 20th January 2011.

The sessions will run each day at the Uniting Church Hall at 24 Pope Street, Tarragindi and cost just $10 per family payable on the day for children under four years of age, their siblings and carers.

Director Kate Williams said Boppin' Babies is a socially inclusive program that encourages closeness in families through music sharing and bonding.

"Australian children and families are very fortunate to have access to music programs like ours which promote early childhood development and nurture relationships between parents and their babies," Ms Williams said.

"There are children in Cambodia who don't have parents, let alone access to music in the home environment.
"Our Christmas school holiday program will celebrate the role of parents and carers while helping to raise funds for two orphanages in Siem Reap and Phnom Penh which support hundreds of orphaned and disadvantaged Cambodian children," she said.

The Christmas school holiday sessions will run at 9:30am and 10:15am.  Spaces are limited and bookings are essential.
