SUMMARY:Family Storytime
DESCRIPTION:Join us for songs\, stories and fun with your little ones. This is a free family drop-in program for babies\, toddlers\, preschoolers\, and their caregivers. Ages 0-5. \nReading and singing are two of the most important activities for building early literacy and language skills\, and we will practice lots of both! Creating an early positive association with books by reading together (or in a fun environment like Storytime!) can help foster a lifelong love of reading.  Rhymes and singing help young developing brains break apart language and make sense of it. Storytime also provides socialization opportunities for both little ones as well as adult caregivers looking to make connections in the community. All around it’s a good time!
