Join Michael, Octavia Field Library Branch's Children's Librarian, for an hour of nursery rhymes, storytelling, arts & crafts and playtime. We'll talk, sing, write, read and play, and your toddler age kiddos will have so much fun that they won't even realize they are gaining valuable pre-literacy skills. Ages 0-5.
Join us for an engaging book discussion, coffee, tea, & treats!
Books are selected during our annual book club poll, each fall. Registered participants will receive a link to nominate their picks, and to vote on the final selections. Printed book lists & monthly discussion guides are available at meetings, and at the front desk. Participants can place their own hold requests for copies of the books, or ask for their books to be requested in advance, during the annual survey.
Join us for 30 minutes of story time for our youngest library users! Our “Little Readers” program is for children 0 to 5 years old and their caregivers. Little Readers features books, stories, songs, movements and group play time. Come and develop your child’s early literacy skills in this fun environment.
Sorry we cannot accommodate Daycare groups for this program.
