Once Upon a Craft
2 - 5
Step into a whimsical world of nursery rhymes at the library with Once Upon a Craft!
Every month, we dive into a different classic nursery rhyme to build the foundational literacy and listening skills your child needs for the classroom. Through interactive storytelling and rhythmic play, children will explore a new tale before transitioning into a themed craft designed to sharpen fine motor skills and creative thinking. It’s a whimsical, monthly adventure that turns "once upon a time" into "ready for school success!"
Open to kids 2- 5 and their caregivers. Registration not required, but space is limited and is on a first-come, first-served basis. Call or visit the library with any questions.
