Storytimes Galore!

Dear Rumney Readers,

I'm getting excited for eight weeks of storytimes right here at the library! We will be meeting each week on Thursdays at 3:30 and Saturdays at 10:30, except on February 24, when we will meet at 6:30 for a pajama storytime. We have lots of books to read, songs to sing, crafts to make, and puppets to visit with!

Take a look below to find out what we will be doing at storytime:

Thursday, Jan. 8 and Saturday, Jan. 10: A Jan Brett Winter Celebration
We will read some of Jan Brett's winter-themed books, sing songs, create a simple craft, and participate in a feltboard activity.

Thursday, Jan. 15 and Saturday, Jan. 17: A Popcorn Party
We will read books and poems about popcorn, followed by songs, activities, and a popcorn snack!

Thursday, Jan. 22 and Saturday, Jan. 24: Let's Monkey Around!
Curious George and other funny monkeys will join us for a monkey-themed storytime.

Thursday, Jan. 29 and Saturday, Jan. 31: An Island Beach Party
