Storytelling Events for elementary
children and their parents

The Ashland Library Children's Department is offering three (yes,
three!) Storytimes. They are geared for toddlers and pre-schoolers
who spend about 30 minutes each week listening, laughing and learning
as they interact with Children's Librarian, Perii Hauschild-Owen,
and one another.
The Preschool Story Time line-up is as follows:
Monday
evenings from 6:30 - 7:00 PM.
Tuesday
mornings from 11:30 - 12:00 Noon. Special program for babies 0-12 months at 10:45 AM.
Wednesday
mornings from 10:30 - 11:00 AM.
Wobblers on Tuesday at 10:00 AM, for babies aged 12-24 months. Books, songs and rhymes for parents and their babies.
Babies in the Library and Wobblers in the Library on Tuesdays.
Register for these classes with the children's department, 774-6995.
