Live Storytime for Children – Square Books Jr.
Square Books Jr.’s live storytime is a beloved community activity for young pre-school aged kids/ families on Wednesdays and both school-age and pre-school families on Saturdays. While the stories are great, Ms. Jill’s music makes the experience truly magical. Not only can you join the live storytime on their Facebook page, but you can watch past ones that you may have missed. Ms. Jill will post upcoming books she will read. Be sure to engage with Ms.Jill and share with her your recommendations as well.
