Spring Storytime • Fridays at 11am
Use the ramp at the back of the building if you prefer to avoid the front steps.
Visit the library for Storytime every Friday at 11am! Storytimes are geared toward ages 0-5 are followed by an art project or other themed activity.
Diving into books from an early age is like handing them a magical key to the world of letters and sounds! It’s the first step on their epic journey to becoming a reading superstar!
Introducing kids to books and the magic of language early on is like giving them a superpower for their vocab! It’s the secret sauce for decoding what others say and spicing up their own self-expression!
Tuesday Storytime is taking a break while we plan for special spring and summer programs. You can still come to the library to use our Children’s Room for play dates, connecting with other caregivers, reading, access to our toys, games, exploring to see what else you can find!
