Cuddle Bugs

Cuddle Bugs is a story time for children birth to 23 months and will be held on Thursdays from 10:00 – 10:20 am this fall.

This program is designed to introduce infants to the world of stories. Through sensory exploration and exposure to songs, bounces, rhymes, tickles, puppets and many other enriching circle time activities, your child will be involved in an environment that encourages fun, laughter, and giggles. This interactive program features activities that promote language development and prepare babies for a lifetime of reading! Learn about the Early Literacy Skills and take home a page of rhymes and songs to try at home.
Story Programs will begin the week of October 4 and run for 7 weeks. To register, stop by the circulation desk or call the library at 774-1218. Registration begins September 13.

Wiggle Worms

Wiggle Worms is a story time for children 2 & 3 years olds and will be held on Mondays from 10:00 – 10:30 am this fall.

These programs build on the baby experience by introducing stories with more language, simple storylines and predictable plots. While spending this time together, children and their caregivers are encouraged to become actively involved in the stories and to participate in fingerplays, songs, and puppet play experiences. A weekly take-home sheet listing books, songs, & rhymes will also be provided to share at home.
Story Programs will begin the week of October 4 and run for 7 weeks. To register, stop by the circulation desk or call the library at 774-1218. Registration begins September 13.

Book Tales

A fantastic time for your preschooler to experience a wide variety of literacy and play experiences. Children will engage in stories, rhymes, songs, chants, puppets, and many large-group learning activities. We invite caregivers to join in our opening and closing activities and assist with our craft projects to ease the transition of children attending storytime by themselves.
Story Programs will begin the week of October 4 and run for 7 weeks. To register, stop by the circulation desk or call the library at 774-1218. Registration begins September 13.
