Discovery Time with Miss Christine is a fun and engaging story time for the whole family! Each week, we build early literacy skills through the five essential practices: sing, talk, read, write, and play. These simple, everyday activities support language development, spark creativity, and boost comprehension, while also laying a strong foundation for future STEAM learning (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math).
Preschoolers
Join us at the Barbara Bush Branch Library for Pre-School Storytime with Ms. Caroline! We will read stories, sing songs, and exercise our creative bodies. Look forward to a monthly bilingual surprise!
Join us for a craft time for our youngest artists! This activity is intended for children ages 2 and up.
Registration is strongly encouraged, so we can get a head count -- we want to have enough materials for everyone who wants to join in on the fun! Depending on weather and mess level, this program will either be outside the library or in the children's section upstairs.
Create your own worlds out of Lego! Space battles, race cars, beautiful gardens, ice castles, you name it and you can build it out of Lego.
