Storytime on the West Lawn

Join us on the West Lawn for storytime this summer on Wednesdays at 10:30 am, including fingerplays, songs, and stories. Outside play with hulu hoops, balance boards, and more are available before storytime, with bagged summer lunch (free for kids ages 1 - 18 years) served afterwards, picnic-style. (In case of weather issues, storytime and summer lunch will be held in the large meeting room. 

Summer storytime is geared toward 4-6 year olds with a caregiver, but all ages of kids, from babies through older siblings are welcome to attend.  Please bring a blanket or towel to sit on the grass, or lawn chairs are welcome around the edges of the crowd. No pre-registration is needed for families or groups of fewer than 8 kids; preschools or other organizations wanting to bring a group to storytime are asked to call ahead to the youth desk at 641-754-5738, ext. 3 to check for options.
