rhymes, fingerplays, stories, and more.

Preschool Stories and Me
Meets every Thursday at 10 a.m.
This is an independent storytime for
children from three to five years old
(parents may sit on the bench, while kids
sit on the floor). If your child is not ready
to sit with the other children without their
caregiver, please consider joining Tiny

on stories with a few songs, and lasts
approximately 30 minutes. Coloring and
a craft follows storytime.
Each storytime session is held in the Storytime Room.
