Drop in to one, two, or all, of these special storytime and activity sessions focused on preparing your child for Kindergarten success. Library staff will share tips and easy strategies you can use to instill a love of reading in your child and help get them ready to learn—all while having super storytime fun! These are parent/child storytimes geared for your child’s success; therefore ,we ask one adult per child to keep the learning to the max. This program series will be held at the Main Library and is most appropriate for children ages 3 to 5. No pre-registration is required for this FREE series.
