Introduce your toddler to early literacy which helps in building the foundation of reading. We pair short books with songs and rhymes to engage them. Toddlers love to wander and listen during our time together.

Storytime Accompanying Adults
This storytime works best if there is one child to one adult. Participation of caregivers with their child is important in order to help them learn while they are having fun.
Welcome to our live virtual storytime for toddlers!
We are using Zoom to present these storytimes. One registration per family (not per participant) is all that is required.
Hear stories, sing songs, and have fun with your friends! Storytime will highlight early literacy skills that children need to learn before they can read.

Storytime without Adults
Children attend this storytime without their grown-ups so that they can practice independence.
Beginning or independent readers love to practice reading aloud to one of the dogs from Hinsdale Humane Society’s Therapaws Program because it’s pressure-free! Reading time is a one-on-one experience; no parents or siblings allowed.
