Just because we’re practicing social distancing, doesn’t mean you have to miss out on storytime. Storytimes encourage language and pre-reading skill development that help your child grow into a successful reader. That’s why we’ve added online storytimes for children to enjoy! These stories have been handpicked by our Charlotte Mecklenburg Library’s children’s librarians. Many of our storytime videos include active reading tips, booklist suggestions, discussion questions and book related activities to enjoy after the video.
To view our online storytimes, click here.
Looking for more? Charlotte Mecklenburg Library offers many educational digital resources to encourage learning and play. All are FREE with your Charlotte Mecklenburg Library Card!
