Quarterly training for our program!
Interact with your child as we use books, songs, music, finger plays, and flannel boards to build early literacy skills. Story time will be followed by a craft or activity. Designed for children from 18 months through preschool and their caregivers.
Take a bite! Try something new! In this yummy storytime, we will be taste-testing foods and reading stories about how they are made. Kids in grades K-5 must register to attend.
This month, we will be taste-testing dumplings, donated by Dumpling House, in honor of the Lunar New Year! A special guest from Dumpling House will be here to give a demonstration on how they make dumplings.
Children ages 8 and under must be accompanied by an adult for this program. Drop offs will not be permitted.

Let's Talk is a casual program designed for non-native English speakers to practice their English conversation skills with a native English speaker. Discussions focus on current news, events and American culture. Let's Talk is held both in-person and online via Zoom, for those who would rather join the class virtually. Email Library Staff at esol@johnstonlibrary.org for sign-in information. The program is free and no registration is required, but is appreciated.
