Welcome to my storytime blog! I have created a Virtual Storytime room with some stories and fun activities for you to do at home when you can't make it to the library. Stories and activities are changed every couple of weeks. You can also access past story blogs by using the sidebar search box.

ACTIVITIES
  • OUTDOOR SCAVENGER HUNT Have your grownup print out the resource on this website. Then, go out to your yard for a fun scavenger hunt. 

  • OR, CREATE YOUR OWN SCAVENGER HUNT. Brainstorm with your grownup about all the natural things you might find in your yard, your neighborhood, the park. Then, take your list outside and see what you can find. If you have one, take along a magnifying glass and/or some binoculars. Have a competition with your siblings or adult to see who finds the most in nature. Or, work together to see how many items you can find. Can you add to your list? How many of each item can you spot? However you choose to play this activity, have fun and enjoy the beauty in spring, in nature. 


Look for more stories and activities in the coming days. 
Remember, make it a great day, keep safe, and keep on reading!
