The library offers Story Time on a limited, drop-in basis. Toddler Story Time can

accommodate thirty children. Arrive early at the Youth Desk with your child

and library card so you can fill out a ticket for admission.

Children will learn songs, nursery rhymes and finger plays, play movement games,

and listen to simple stories. Please plan to stay with your child during Story Time,

as the adult-child interaction is an important component of the experience.

Beebe Library intends to provide at least one age-appropriate Story Time session annually for

every Wakefield child. To that end, the library offers four 6-week Story Time sessions during

the school year – Fall, Winter I, Winter II, and Spring.

The library will admit thirty children to each Toddler Story Time. If the library routinely has

to turn away participants, then preference will be given to Wakefield residents. The library

does not provide Story Time services to residents of communities without certified libraries.

Children will learn songs, nursery rhymes and finger plays, play movement games and musical

instruments, and listen to simple stories. Please plan to stay with your child during Story

Time, as the adult-child interaction is an important component of the experience.

There will be no Story Times on legal holidays.

Healthy Child

Beebe Library is a social, public facility. While the staff strives to maintain a clean

environment, public places carry the risk of germs. If your child has a cough, cold, or other

communicable ailment, please consider postponing your visit as a matter of public health.

Bad Weather

Story Times are cancelled if the Wakefield Public Schools close or delay opening for bad

weather.

Videotaping and Photography

Please refrain from recording image or sound during library programs and story times. This not

only distracts participants, but also may violate the wishes of others whom you did not intend

to record or photograph.

Welcome to Story Time

The library offers its Story Time sessions on a limited, drop-in basis. No pre-

registration is necessary. Just bring your child and library card to one of the age-

appropriate Story Times offered each week. Arrive a little early so you can

provide your name and library card number on your ticket.
