Purple Crayon Storytime
Tuesday, December 3rd at 11:00am
Children (Ages 2-6)
Children ages 2-6 are invited to this South Park Library storytime. It's all about the purple crayon. We will start every week by introducing ourselves to the group then reading and listening to our weekly book. The children will continue to work on "SIGHT WORD OF THE DAY." Plus, we will be reading each of the Harold and the Purple Crayon books. Kids will also be interacting with the other kids and making friends along the way. The fun doesn’t end there, the kids will also have the opportunity to make a craft that ties in to the book we just read. This storytime will allow the kids to release their creativity!
Space is limited! Please register for this program online here.
Nursery Rhyme Storytime
Wednesday, December 4th at 10:30am
Children (Ages 0-2)
We will have rhymes, lifts, and bounces. There will be music, bubbles and smiles. Sharing nursery rhymes at a young age helps children recognize Jack and Jill when they show up later in a rhyme or in a new story. These deep connections contribute to children’s understanding of narrative norms as well as fuel print motivation as they enjoy revisiting old friends in new stories. This is a great way to create a bond with you child, grandchild or just a special child. So be sure to join us for Jack and Jill, Humpty Dumpty and Twinkling Stars, and so much more!

Let’s get ready to read and have fun. This is a great program to meet some new friends. The lovable robot, Roz (The Wild Robot), was last seen being ripped away from her goose son, Brightbill, and hauled unwillingly back to the factory for the Makers to repair and reassign her. What happens next? Find out at this program. The kids loved the first book ion the series, so we are reading the 2nd book in the series. THE WILD ROBOT ESCAPES. Readers do not need not to have read the first installment to enjoy this sequel!
