Children

 

Welcome to our Children's Department.   We have storytime, special programs, and a summer reading program to entertain and educate children.    Our children's room houses books and materials appropriate for children from birth through the 8th grade. We have books, movies, music, audiobooks, and toys.  We also have resources for parents and teachers.   Check out our computer lab, which includes special touch-screen computers designed with children in mind.   We have plenty of comfortable areas to sit and enjoy a book.  We have friendly and knowledgeable staff who are willing to help you find just the right book.

Storytime:  January-April (We are already planning summer programs so stay tuned!)

Join us on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays from 6-7pm and every Wednesday from 10:30-11:30am. 

 

Babies, toddlers, preschoolers and school-age kids!  All are welcome at our storytime.  It is a fun time for all ages.  We read, laugh, dance, sing, rhyme and there is always a fabulous craft.   Storytime provides a foundation for building a lifelong love of books and reading.
