Story Times for the 23-24 school year begin the week of 9/12

Valley Center Public Library Posted on August 28, 2023 by LibraryStaffAugust 30, 2023

No Registration is required.

Story Times each Tuesday from 10:30 to 11:00 AM are for infants and toddlers aged 0 through 2 years old. Story Times each Wednesday & Thursday from 10:30 to 11:00 AM are for all ages up through age 5 years old but not yet in Kindergarten.

Parents/caregivers please plan to remain with your child during story time. If no one has arrived for Story Time before 10:40 AM, we will cancel for that day. To minimize distractions for the children, doors to story time will close at 10:40, and if you arrive later, we will ask that you return for the next story time instead.

If you must bring food/drink, please make sure it is appropriate for story time — no candy or anything that might cause a mess such as pizza, ritz cracker with cheese, or yogurt, etc. All food/drink will remain in the story time room, not in the Library proper. Please be mindful of other children who may have extreme allergies — no peanut or tree nut products please, and please do not bring any items containing latex to Story Time.
