## About this plan

The Manuel Zapata Olivella Public Library in El Tintal welcomes the youngest readers with a session built for early childhood. Called "Bebés al Caribe," the activity invites babies and their caregivers to explore letters, sounds, and textures inspired by Colombia's coast.

During the session, children feel rough, smooth, soft, and scratchy surfaces while they listen to stories, songs, and vocal games. The space invites families to imagine, sense, and play together, with the sea and the joy of the Caribbean as the guiding thread.

Entry is free. You only need to sign up ahead of time and wear comfortable clothes for you and your baby.
