 The Tecumseh Public Library is targeting its youngest future readers with a program beginning next month that is new for the library and the Pioneer Library System.
The library will host a Babygarten™ storytime series, beginning at 11 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 14, and running each Tuesday at that time for six weeks at the library, 114 N. Broadway Ave.
The series is an educational curriculum designed for children up to 18 months old and their caregivers. The interactive storytime will feature rhymes, songs, a craft and playtime used to encourage pre-literacy skills in babies. It also aims to teach parents how and why to read to their babies.
Tecumseh Children’s Librarian Sue Walker will lead each week’s program.
Registration for the program is required, either at the library, by calling 598-5955 or going online here .

 After a break for the summer, the Tecumseh Public Library’s Toddler Story Time returns at 11 a.m. Thursday mornings, beginning Aug. 12.
The weekly special story time series includes songs, stories, and fingerplays for little people and their caregivers.
It is part of the library’s Growing Like a Read program, a project of the library system that promotes brain development for literacy skills in children from birth through age 4 through reading, talking, playing and singing. The program is funded through a grant from the Inasmuch Foundation.
Growing Like a Read participants will be eligible to have their names entered in a semi-annual drawing for a savings bond.
Registration is not required for the storytimes. For more information on this or other activities at the Tecumseh Public Library, call 598-5955 |
