While we are closed, we would like to continue sharing our storytime themes to give you inspiration for reading with your kids. Reading aloud to children of any age has numerous benefits, such as building empathy, increasing vocabulary, and facilitating a lifelong love of reading. Plus, it's a fun way to spend time together! Visit our Instagram page every weekday for new crafts, stories, and songs to share with your kids. We would love to see how you are doing storytime at home. Share your pictures of crafts or reading together with us on social media.
