10:30 AM: Outdoor Story Time


June 30, 2021

Storytime is weather permitting, so check this event page and our Facebook page for updates! Registration is NOT required at this time. At this time we will be meeting outside in our side yard. Please bring your own blanket or something to sit on as we will be spreading out on the grass. Masks and social distancing are required for attendees.

Each week we will sing songs and learn rhymes or finger plays, read a story together, and make a craft. Afterwards there will be a self directed hidden picture scavenger hunt and a large motor skill activity you can play on the lawn. The structured story time will last about 30 minutes. You will be able to check out select library materials that will be available outside. The library is only offering curbside service, so the library space is not open to the public during story time. Bathrooms will be available.
