Baby Storytime - In-person

A storytime experience for our youngest library users and their caregivers.

A storytime experience for our youngest library users and their caregivers. These 20-30-minute storytimes introduce a diverse collection of books, songs, rhymes and bounces developmentally appropriate for children from birth to when they start walking.

This is a wonderful way to introduce your child to the joys and culture of reading in a positive and fun atmosphere. This storytime is designed so the baby will be in their caregiver’s lap and the grownup is actively involved in the program.
