PVLD Kids

The popular Babies in the Library storytime is coming to the Miraleste Library every Tuesday from 11:30 am to 12:00 noon.  Aimed at children ages 6 – 24 months, and their caregivers,  this half hour program includes playtime, a lap sit session with songs and nursery rhymes and stories and board books. Older and younger children are welcome to attend too! This program is on going and no registration is required. For more information, call the Young Readers Desk at 310-377-09584, ext 600.

Here are some tips for making the most of any storytime:

Participate!  Sit with your child and model how much fun it is to listen, see, sing, clap and even dance at Storytime.

Discuss! After Storytime, talk about the books, songs and puppets. Conversations with even the youngest children increase their language development.

 Explore! Look at books, try a coloring sheet, play with puzzles or flannel pieces, or try our Early Literacy computer stations

 Make Friends! When storytime is over, children and adults can socialize and make lifelong friends!
