Storytimes are a fun way to introduce young children to books and language. Why should you bring your kids to one?
- They're in their prime language development stage from 0-3 years, and listening to language repeated in song, rhyme, and stories helps them soak it in.
- Help them learn about big, important concepts like shape, color, size, animals, sounds, and even feelings.
- Help them become good listeners and increase their attention span -- before they start school!
- They really enjoy getting together with other kids to listen to stories and sing songs.
- It's a great way to introduce little ones to joining in group activities, as they will do in school.
