Storytime And 1,2 Books Return To Cowra Library For The School Term

As children return to school, so do our literacy programs for toddlers and preschoolers at Cowra Library.

Join us for 1,2 Books for toddlers on Wednesday from 10.30am – 11.30am from 2nd February. We use nursery rhymes, action songs, finger plays and stories in a fun and interactive way to develop literary skills, and stimulate imaginations!

Fun storytimes for preschoolers and their parents and carers return to Cowra Library on Thursday 3rd February at 10.30am. We read stories, sing songs, play games and make craft. Storytime sessions are held every Thursday during the school term and cater for children from birth to 6 years. Storytime is free and each session lasts about one hour. There is a wealth of evidence to support the fact that children who are read to on a regular basis when they are young, are more prepared for learning to read when they start school.

When hearing someone read, children learn the structure of language, grammar and the sound of words. They also learn to love books, to enjoy them for the content, stimulation and entertainment they provide.

Book your place online via Eventbrite.com.au, or the CWL website events page, or call Cowra Library on 6340 2180.
