Evening Winter Storytime • Wednesdays at 6pm
Storytimes are geared toward ages 0-8 and are followed by an art project or other themed activity.
When winter days get chilly, it’s the perfect time to cuddle up with cozy stories! Bring your little one for an evening of gentle books and a calm wind-down to bedtime as we rest and relax while embracing winter. Pajamas welcome!
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 vocabulary, understanding others, and expressing themselves!
