Mother Goose on the Loose Walkers and Talkers

For children ages 12-35 months. Build your child's early literacy skills. Children will learn songs, play musical instruments, play movement games, learn nursery rhymes and finger plays, and listen to simple stories. Parents or caregivers must accompany children during the program.

This year, the library offers its Fall Story Time session on a drop-in basis. No pre-registration is necessary. Just bring your child and library card to one of the age-appropriate Story Times offered each week. Arrive a little early so you can provide your name and library card number on your admission sheet.

The library will admit twenty children to each Walkers and Talkers Story Time. If the library routinely has to turn away participants, then preference will be given to Wakefield residents.  The library does not provide Story Time services to residents of communities without certified libraries.

Please plan to stay with your child during Story Time, as the adult-child interactions are an important component of the experience.

There will be no Story Times on legal holidays. When there is bad weather, please call the library at 781-246-6334 to make sure it is open. If the library has a delayed opening, Story Times will take place as scheduled, but any missed Story Times will not be re-scheduled.
