Storytimes for Babies

Baby storytimes are not just a simplified version of traditional storytimes. Baby storytime follows a script, starts and ends with the same songs, and includes many of the same rhymes and activities from week to week. The program includes nursery rhymes, movement activities, and reading a different and very simple book each week. Over time, many of the elements used during baby storytime have found their way into the library’s toddler and preschool storytimes, providing continuity for the children as they grow up and attend more advanced programs.
