New Library App Arrives in May!

Spring Preschool Storytimes End Friday, May 26

Post Published: May 22, 2012

Summer Storytimes Begin July 9

While you’re waiting for Summer storytimes to begin, visit our For Kids page and try these early-literacy activities:

  • Read Mr. Gumpy’s Outing  – then have a tea party with fruity flavored iced tea.
  • Play I Spy with rhyming words –  “I spy something that rhymes with BAT.”
  • Make sand letters – when you go to the beach.
  • Keep books and CDs in the car – Great for running errands!
  • Leave a few words out when you sing a favorite song – Then ask your child to remember the missing words.
  • Sing nursery songs and rhymes to your baby.

Early literacy is what children learn about reading and writing before they can actually read or write.

 

Summer Reading sign-up starts June 2 – check back soon for all the details!
