Children's Room Programs
Tiny Tots is offered twice a month for children 1-3 years old. Sessions are 30 minutes of stories, finger plays, songs, and developmental activities. Children must attend with a caregiver.

Pre-school Story time is for children 3-5 years of age. It is held on a continuing basis throughout the year. Sessions are 45 minutes long. Story time provides an opportunity for your child to enjoy and participate in stories, songs, crafts, filmstrips, and simple activities with children of his/her own age. It also encourages individual development of reading and school readiness.

Summer Reading Program: This annual event begins in June and concludes first week of August. Weekly programs based on the annual state theme highlight books through special guest appearances, games, activities, crafts, and more! Incentives are offered to promote reading. Statistics have proven that children who read in the summer return to school in the fall with improved reading abilities.
