Did you know reading with your child develops vocabulary and comprehension, nurtures a love for reading, and motivates children to want to learn to read? Each week, children are invited to help choose the books we will read during storytime—encouraging active participation, building confidence, and cultivating excitement around reading. Families will also have time to read and explore books together. Structured around the Every Child Ready to Read™ Curriculum, storytime is a great way to have fun while working on reading, social, and motor skills.
