Newberry Branch

Meeting Room

This special Story Time event will feature books related to Juneteenth and freedom.

In the leadup to Juneteenth, bring your children to this special Story Time to learn about Juneteenth and celebrate freedom. We will have a guest presenter reading books and leading activities this week.

What is Story Time? Well, it is a casual and fun way for children to develop early literacy skills. This week may be a bit different than usual. Generally, we will read three picture books and learn three signs in American Sign Language. In addition, we often sing and listen to songs and learn action rhymes. We usually finish each session with a play activity.

Recommended for ages 2-5.

AGE GROUP: | Toddlers (1-3 years) | Preschool (3-5 years) |

EVENT TYPE: | Story Time | History & Genealogy |
