  • Registration is not required for storytimes.
  • Choose one session per week to attend. Your day may vary from week to week.
  • Programming is subject to change. Check the library website, fspl.org, and social media outlets for updates.
  • Caregivers must remain with children throughout storytime.
  • Caregivers are responsible for their children’s behavior at all times.
  • Storytime is a snack-free zone.

How to make the most out of storytime:

  • Arrive on time or a few minutes early.
  • Encourage your child to be a good listener.
  • Encourage your child to join in, but don’t force participation. Many children enjoy and benefit from just watching.
  • Step into the hallway with your child if they feel overwhelmed or need a break. You may come back in when your child is ready.
  • When caregivers participate in storytime, it models good behavior and makes storytime fun! Please silence your phones, save conversations for later, and enjoy this special time with your child.
