Emily, a children's librarian at the Clear Lake Freeman Branch, will be visiting us for 2 weeks and that means... STORYTIME! 

Bring your little ones and join us for some stories and giggles!

Program is for children ages 0–4.

Enjoy some time to bond with your baby and meet new friends. This program is for babies and will feature lap-sit stories, songs, activities and time to socialize with others. Story time is an excellent way to bond with your child, boost their vocabulary, and hopefully raise a lifelong reader. Studies have shown that regularly reading to your child can increase their attention span, boost their emotional intelligence, and flex their imagination. A free ticket is required and can be picked up at the information desk 30 minutes prior to the program.
