Stay Home Storytimes: Take Home Storytimes

A digital resource for doing storytime at home!

Take Home Storytimes

Take-Home-Storytime-4

 

With curbside service back and going strong, we're excited to offer you Take Home Storytimes! These are very similar to the Stay Home storytimes, except they are physical bundles of three picture books and a storytime guide sheet (with songs, rhymes, fingerplays, and a craft idea!) for you to check out and take home to share with your family. These storytimes are recommended for Pre-K through 3rd  graders, but definitely ask us about our Baby Take Home option! Check back often as we will continue to add new storytimes. If you have any questions, please call North Park Public Library. (336-226-7185.) Explore this page to learn more!
