For ages 3-5
3-5 year-olds and their grown-ups are invited to join us for our weekly Wednesday Story Hour! No advance registration is required. The program lasts 45 minutes and features songs, stories and hand rhymes in English. Caregivers are requested to sit with their little ones and participate in the program.
As the situation with Covid-19 evolves, here at the Library we continue to monitor the news carefully. We’re moving as many programs for children and teens as possible to a virtual format until further notice. We will maintain this program by connecting online via Zoom.
While we usually don’t recommend screen use for young children, as per guidance from specialists (see articles
here,
here and
here), video conferencing can be appropriate when mediated by an adult. We will happily read books and lead you in stories during this virtual session. Plan to join in, sing along, and move around, as you would do in one of our in-person events. If you join in this virtual session, it will be as important as ever to model movement and song for your little one.
Children’s and Teens’ Services Manager Celeste and Children’s and Teens’ Services Librarian Kirsty will be ready for you by 10h15, with volunteers Mary Wessels and Emily Bonn. You can join at anytime after 10h15 on Wednesday 1 April via Zoom. The session will begin at 10h30.
