These 20-to-30-minute story times are full of books, songs, rhymes and finger plays for children ages birth to 2 years old. Our Baby and Toddler Story Time is a great way to introduce your child to language skills in a positive and fun environment. With slightly more activity and movement than our lap times, children and their grownups are encouraged to engage with the books and songs and to actively participate in the program.

Bailey is making a big, cross-country move to California to live with her dad. While making friends in a new town isn't easy, she'll have a leg up, because she already knows someone: her online chat buddy Alex, another film buff. They've never met in person, but Bailey and Alex get along great. The only problem is that Bailey hasn't told Alex she's moving -- he doesn't even know her real name. So, when Bailey gets the absolute weirdest job working at a museum and starts to have feelings for one of her coworkers, she puts Alex out of her mind.

A story time experience for our youngest library users and their caregivers. These 20-to-30-minute story times introduce books, songs, rhymes, tickles and bounces developmentally appropriate for children ages birth to when they start walking. Baby Lap Time is a wonderful way to introduce your child to the joys of reading in a positive and fun atmosphere. This story time is designed so the baby will be in their caregiver’s lap and the grownup is actively involved in the program. It is recommended that each child have their own adult with them.

French Story Time is for children of all ages. This program includes songs, music and motion and is very interactive. Children have the opportunity to practice their French by learning French songs, enjoying French stories and connecting words with motion.
