  Summer Storytimes

Summer is the perfect time to attend one of our storytime programs! From babytime to family storytime, we have programs for every age. Want to know more? Check out the storytime videos on our Youtube channel, now in English and Spanish.
 
 
 
Summer Crafting with Fruits and Veggies

 Make use of old fruits and veggies by turning them into natural stamps. Apples, oranges, limes and carrots can all be given new life through this fun project that helps develop gross motor skills in little hands.

 
 
Summer Reading Booklists

     

 We have books for everyone this summer: Check out our recommended reading for youth, including lists for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers.
