Caregivers and newborns up to 18-months-old are invited to join Library staff Fridays at 10:30 a.m. from October 7 through December 9, for music, rhymes, movement and books.  This storytime is followed by an hour-long “Baby & Toddler Playtime.”

“Toddler Storytime,” Tuesdays at 11 a.m.:

Caregivers and toddlers are invited every Tuesday from October 4 through December 6 for early literacy-based stories, songs, finger plays and much more. After storytime, families are invited to stay for an hour of play and social time.

“Family Storytime,” Saturdays at 11 a.m.:

From October 8 through December 10, children of all ages and their caregivers are invited to celebrate reading and build their early-literacy skills at Family Storytime.

All children must be accompanied by a parent or caregiver. For more information, contact the Youth Services Department at (607) 272-4557 extension 275.

Library Storytimes have been made possible by the Tompkins County Public Library Foundation through a grant from Elmira Savings Bank.
