Event Details

This 20 minute drop in storytime is designed for babies, toddlers, and preschoolers together with their caretakers. We share simple books, songs, finger plays, and rhythm instruments with a bit of sign language here and there. We always end with bubbles! Space is limited. First come, first served. Strollers must be parked outside the Meeting Room.

Books & Bubbles is very interactive and structured. We will start promptly at 11:15 with all adults helping the children connect with the books and songs. Please plan to sing, talk, and engage with your child as we all teach them and model how storytimes work and how the stories connect with things in their daily lives. We repeat songs for a month but the books will be new each week. We always end by cleaning up our rhythm instruments and then bringing out the bubbles. At the close, we all count down from 10 and then wave goodbye to the bubbles.

We cancel children’s events whenever Mason City Schools close due to Severe Weather. Delays do not count as closings.
