Discover how technology can inspire creativity, imagination, and storytelling while supporting your child's early learning. Each session explores a different interactive tech tool through stories, play, and creative activities that help build literacy, language, motor, and early STEAM skills.

Designed for parents and caregivers as well as children, Byte-Size Beginnings also demonstrates how digital technology can be a positive, purposeful part of family learning and provides ideas for choosing age-appropriate digital resources. Join us each week to explore, create, play, and learn together.

Week 3: Coding

Every adventure begins with a sequence of steps. In this session, families will meet a group of friendly coding robots, including Tale-Bot, Bee-Bot, Sphero Indi, and Glow & Go Bot, using them to follow story paths, solve simple problems, and create imaginative journeys together. Parents and caregivers will discover how playful coding experiences support early problem-solving, sequencing, and computational thinking while building confidence through storytelling and play.

Byte-Size Beginnings is a unique Storytime program that combines reading, singing, and hands-on technology-based learning through play, designed for families with children aged 3-5.

These sessions were made possible by the WA State Government, State Library of Western Australia, and Better Beginnings.
