Preschooler Storytime is geared toward children age 3 years and up who can sit or stand still, listen to the storyteller, and practice self-control for longer periods of time. Stories are longer and activities are more complex. Preschool Storytime lasts about 30 minutes.
Storytime Guidelines
Prepare your child for storytime by explaining how to be a good audience member (i.e. sitting or standing still, listening to the storyteller, speaking quietly, and being kind to others).
If your child becomes restless or upset during storytime, please step out of the room for a break, then quietly return when your child is ready.
Small children may stand instead of sit, but should not run or climb during storytime.
Keep casual conversations to a minimum, and place cell phones on silent mode.
Strollers are not allowed in the program room. Baby carriers/car seats are acceptable.
To avoid distracting other children, please refrain from bringing toys or food to storytime. Comfort items (i.e. blankie or small stuffed animal) and "emergency" snack items are permitted.
Ages: 0 - 5 years old
