Children aged 3-5, and their families, are invited to a half-hour of stories, songs, and rhymes, followed by playtime, art, and social time with other families!
We explore a different theme each week, from favorites like dinosaurs and bears, to series like "the people in our neighborhood" and the alphabet! Join us at the College Ave Branch Library for this fun exploration of literacy with all 5 literacy "practices" - READ, WRITE, TALK, SING, and PLAY your way to a fun time at the library! Each storytime lasts about 25-30 minutes and is followed by playtime with art/crafts/coloring and social time with other families.
Established as the Broadway Branch in 1924, the library served the neighborhood from a frame house on E. 42nd Street until 1958 when a 6,500-square-foot facility opened on Broadway Street. This aging and overcrowded building was replaced in August 2000 with the current 16,000-square-foot structure on College Avenue that was renamed the College Avenue Branch.
