Books and Babies: Newborn to 18 Months - In our Books and Babies Story Time, we read simple board books and do rhymes and bounces, tickles and hugs. The purpose is to show care-givers how to use books with their babies and introduce our youngest patrons to the joy of language.

Bring your young naturalist to the Ipswich River Wildlife Sanctuary to enjoy an afternoon on the Ipswich River! The dog days of summer can be unpleasant, to say the least. Escape the heat with a relaxing paddle on the cool waters of the Ipswich River and enjoy some ice cream, too! We will take a short trip up to shady Perkins Island where we will enjoy some frozen treats and then take our time meandering downstream while enjoying the beauty of the surrounding marshes and forests.
