About Our Preschool Programs:
- Preschool Story Times are designed for children and their adults to participate together. Parents and guardians help us teach valuable skills by modeling appropriate behavior and encouraging excitement about books!
- We ask that all preschool children attend our programs with an adult. If you care for more than 3-4 children and do not have other adults to assist you, please contact our staff for other programming options. Thank you for helping make our storytimes a positive experience for all families!
- For more information on the pre-literacy skills that even the youngest children can begin to develop through regular storytimes, check out this handy guide created by librarian Anne Horjus.
