In between sessions, the conference attendees also had the opportunity to explore exciting products from local vendors and vendors from around BC.




It was a great opportunity for momstown Victoria to meet child care providers from all over BC, and also to give away three amazing prizes from Fisher-Price!

momstown Victoria Scholastic Baby Book Club: Alligator Baby by Robert Munsch


Kristen's mom and dad got lost on the way to the hospital and ended up at the zoo! They bring home a baby that is not Kristen's baby brother. After a few more baby mix-ups, Kristen decides to go to the zoo herself and find her real baby brother to bring home.

"Alligator Baby" by Robert Munsch and illustrated by Michael Martchenko is a hilarious board book that my own toddler, preschooler and school-age kid all love. Congratulations to this month's lucky winners, Melissa & Oliver, who won our Scholastic Baby Book of the month at our Baby Basics: Sharing Circle at Medicine Moves Dance Studio.

Our Baby Basics program will be relaunching at a new time and location in June!
