Preschool Storytime - For ages 3-6

In North Story Room

Calling all preschoolers! This storytime features stories, songs, and rhymes for ages 3-6.

As caregivers must remain in the building, but do not need to attend the class, this is the first “on my own” library storytime for children.

Registration required.  Please register each child individually.

If you'd like to see a list of books we may read during this program, please click here.

*Please note – because of the storytime demand, if you are unable to attend the first week of storytime for any reason, and you do not communicate that absence to us, you will be moved to the wait list.  Also, if you miss two weeks in a row for any reason, and you do not communicate those absences to us, you will also be moved to the wait list.  Please call the Youth desk (847-429-4685) if you will be absent from storytime.  Thank you!
