Storytimes
Our storytime programs run year round, and no registration is required. Groups of ten or more, please contact us to arrange for a special storytime.

Toddler Storytime. Every Wednesday at 10:00 am, join Mr. Steve for stories, songs, fingerplays and activities especially for ages 0-3. The program is held in the Founders Suite, and lasts about one hour.

Music and Movement Storytime. Thursdays at 10:00 am, join Miss Amadee for songs, stories, and wiggles for ages 2-5. Each week has a different theme, and we will occasionally have musical guests. The program is held in the Youth Services area, and lasts about 45 minutes.

Preschool Storytime. On Fridays at 10:00 am, join Miss Joyce for stories, fingerplays, and crafts. Each week has a different theme. The program is designed for ages 3-5, but siblings are always welcome. Preschool Storytime is held in the James Children’s Activity Room, and lasts about an hour including craft time.
