Did you know that Storytime begins at birth? Ascension Parish Library offers a variety of storytimes for children from birth through age five. All of our storytimes are fun, interactive, and engaging, and promote early literacy skills. We’ll make learning fun, and your child’s face will light up with excitement as they sing along with their favorite songs and participate in interactive picture books. Storytime is also great for boosting your child’s social confidence, and you’ll be amazed at how much they come out of their shells in just a few short weeks as they interact with other children and with our staff. Children are not the only ones who benefit from the social aspects of storytime. As a parent, you’ll to get to know other parents who have children of a similar age and stage.
Babytime is for babies from birth through 18 months old. It’s an excellent chance for babies and caregivers to bond over books.
