Library Storytimes

by Terri Chadick on January 4, 2009

When you have kids at home, establishing a weekly routine is important – and that routine should include a weekly trip to the library. By exposing your kids to their local library at a young age, you are planting the seeds of a lifelong love of learning and reading.

All the local libraries have various storytimes scheduled throughout the week, so incorporating one (or more) into your weekly schedule is easy — and fun! Here you will find a list of the weekly storytimes at Northwest Arkansas libraries, and we have included other weekly library programs as well. All are free and sign up is not required.

If you know of one that we missed, email the weekly library event to terri@lifepluskids.com.

Remember: Scheduling is subject to change, so be sure to check with the library before you go (although there are plenty of books to keep you busy even if the storytime is cancelled).

Just click on the name of the program for more info. Enjoy!
