EARLY LITERACY
Build your child’s early literacy skills by attending storytime and other educational programs at the library! Storytime helps parents and caregivers foster a lifelong love of books and reading in their children. Parents and caregivers can help children get ready to read through five simple activities: read, write, sing, talk, and play.
- Lil’ Bookworms Storytime (birth-5 years old)
- A monthly in-person storytime. We also have a playlist of every read aloud with Ms. Kara on our Facebook page so you can replay your favorites whenever you want! Playlist is here: https://www.facebook.com/watch/RockvillePLCT/2834477513338927/
- 1,000 Books Before Kindergarten
