Toddler Time

This short-attention span story time is perfect for toddlers. They’ll share shorter books, rhymes, and music with the understanding that sitting still is tricky sometimes. Caregivers should plan on attending and helping little ones to engage, feel comfortable, and enjoy early literacy! They’ll have 20-25 minutes of interactive programming, followed by an unstructured playtime where children and caregivers can play together and / or interact with peers.

Target Age: 2-3 years old, with adult. Their age recommendations tells you the developmental level they plan for, but every child is different. Feel free to try them out and choose the story time(s) that feel right. Everyone is welcome!

This event is at the Urbandale Public Library at 9:50 AM – 10:35 AM.
