Summer Story Time Program

Join us for interactive stories and songs! 

Story time sparks imagination and creativity in young children. 

Listening to books enhances the development of vocabulary, comprehension, and language skills. These important communication skills are the building blocks of literacy and learning.

Story time events will take place weekly throughout the summer for toddlers through 3rd grade. Each week will follow the same schedule and will take place in the Mystery Room.  Programming will run for 11 weeks from June 17th through August 26th. 

A parent and/or guardian must be present with the child for the duration of the program.

Registration is now open.  Registration is required for attendance. Register at the circulation desk or call (609) 492-7081. A parent and/or guardian must be present with the child for the duration of the program. No bare feet- children must wear shoes or sandals to follow health and safety guidelines. 

Please register each child individually. 

Limited to 24 child participants per program/date.
