Ongoing Storytimes...
               Mother Goose on the Loose – for ages 0-2 – Tuesday morning at 10:30 am. These will be definitely geared to this age range with short stories, dancing and gross motor movement, poems and finger plays.
                Preschool Story Time – for ages 3-5 – Monday morning at 10:30 am. These story times will have stories that are longer and more involved as well as music and movements and poems and finger plays and will be followed by an activity or two such as crafts or games.
                All story times are open to everyone who would like to attend and although I have geared the story times to specific ages no one will ever be excluded from attending. My expectations have been and always will be that everyone participates as they want and everyone has fun together.
