Families across Coventry are invited to join the celebrations for National Baby Week. This year’s theme is “Chat, Play, Read with Me”, and there’s a packed week of fun, free sessions designed to help little ones get the best start in life.

The week kicks off with a launch event hosted by Coventry Best Start Family Hubs, bringing together families, partners and community organisations for activities that let babies, young children and grown-ups play, learn and connect. Throughout the week, Coventry’s Family Hubs and partner organisations will share simple ways to support your child’s development by chatting, playing and reading together every day.
