 New!! French storytime for children with Marie at the Main Boulder Public Library!
Join me in the children's area and enjoy books, songs, and more--all in French--at our bi-monthly story time for preschoolers and up! Come and learn about the
famous French characters from French children literature!
"Children who are exposed to a foreign language at an early age develop a greater awareness of the world they live in, and acquire an immediate sense of pride. Books in particular have a key role in developing vocabulary and your children's fluency."
Mark your calendars! This event is free and takes place every other Tuesday morning from September 7th to December 28th.
