LCL Baby Story Time

Baby Story Time welcomes little ones from birth to 18 months with their caregivers for a gentle introduction to stories, songs, and movement. The session supports early literacy by encouraging adults to silence phones and take part as everyone sings, moves, listens, and enjoys simple interactive activities together. As part of LCL’s Story Time offerings, there are also options for toddlers ages 1 to 3 and family sessions at the Main Library, the Broadway Branch, and in the park. This program is designed to help you and your child connect while building language and pre-reading skills.
