For ages 3-5

3-5 year-olds and their grown-ups are invited to join us for our weekly Wednesday Story Hour! The program lasts 45 minutes and features songs, stories and hand rhymes in English. While we usually don’t recommend screen use for young children (see articles here, here and here), video conferencing can be appropriate when mediated by an adult. This event will be hosted by Children’s and Teens’ Services Manager Celeste,  Children’s and Teens’ Services Librarian Kirsty, and volunteer Mary Wessels, who will 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.

We are thrilled to be able to bring the Library to you virtually. The Library is now offering curbside lending, and our staff is available to help you. If you would like to support the Library and our services, you can donate here to help sustain this vital institution in its 100th year of service.
