Play. Explore. Investigate.

Sensational sensory fun awaits! Bring your little ones to the library to explore sensory learning. Sensory play is designed to stimulate a young child's senses—hearing, seeing, tasting, smelling, touching—and to create an early, natural introduction to the scientific processes as children play and investigate. Bottom line: kids have TONS of hands-on fun while strengthening important cognitive skills and fine and gross motor skills.

At each session, we will provide several exciting sensory stations for your child to explore while introducing you to early learning tools to benefit your child's development. Plus, we will provide a take-home project so you can continue the learning and fun beyond your visit! Things could get messy, so be sure to dress appropriately.

For children of all ages. Just drop in!

Today a reader, tomorrow a leader. –Margaret Fuller

Storytime's not just for our youngest patrons! Help your older child grow a love for reading as we explore literacy through stories, songs, games, and crafts you can enjoy as a family. We'll have occassional guest speakers, too. Due to the featured books and the skill level needed for some crafts and activities, this program is especially ideal for elementary-aged children, but all ages are welcome. We strive to create rich and fun experiences that build a love of books, libraries, and learning that will stay with children for a lifetime.

This series is designed with homeschool families in mind and may also provide an alternative for families unable to attend our weekly storytimes on Tuesdays.
