Storytimes
“Storytimes” are good first outing with your little one - And they are FREE! Generally, they are divided by age range and include 30 to 45 minutes of stories, songs and a little coloring (depending on your child’s age). It often requires a little leg work to find the best storytellers but don’t let that turn you off to trying this enjoyable activity. As your child grows, keep up with your local library and bookstore calendar of events so you can take advantage of more fun activities such as puppet shows, craft times, and holiday related events.
