Check out the library

Your maternity leave challenge this week is to seek out the tot story time at your library and go there. Space out a little while someone else entertains your baby with a new voice and stories.

If you’ve looked into a baby gym or Gymboree and thought it was too expensive, or too much of a commitment, try this; it’s free!

Protip: Double check the time before you go. And, hey, be on time. If you’re 5 minutes late, you’ll miss half of it.

This is your eighteenth challenge. See a list of all the activities for new moms we’ve generated.
