Storytimes

Storytime is geared toward children age 3 to 6 years old and their adult caregivers. The 30-45 minute sessions include stories, rhymes, finger plays, music, and movement. Afterward, there is an art/craft activity geared toward preschool-aged participants. Each storytime has the same content, so choose the one that best fits your schedule.
