We are getting ready to go to story time at the library. Our library has an excellent story time for toddlers. The woman who runs it is absolutely excellent. She makes a point of giving the children either a craft or a treat every time after story time. She always has a theme and liberally
intersperses songs and movement. Although story time is the same both Tuesdays and Thursdays every week, I try to go both days because Jackie loves it so much. Also, I'm starting to make friends there.Yippee for story time!
I'm jealous you have such a grreat program, although my kids are not that in to story time. If it involved a jungle gym they'd go for it! LOL
ReplyDeleteBoth our libraries do have programs (well okay my town has one library but we have a reciprocal deal in the next town, too). My town's library...we got asked to leave because Persistence, a baby at the time, was too wiggly and noisy. She was just squirming like little ones do and not crying, just making little noises. Luckily I had a friend there too and I went to the hall with P2 and P1 stayed in with the friends. Afterwards the librarian---children's librarian---came up and "suggested" I not return until my children could sit quietly. I was so offended I haven't been back since LOL!
The other library has a program somewhat like you describe but it's pretty low key so my kids get antsy.
Our old town in MA had a GREAT program, busy and active and fun and P1 LOVED that!
So like I said...jealous!
:)
i absolutely LOVE miss teresa! my experience at that library made me consider a career in library science.
