While there are multiple options for some age groups, to allow everyone to have a chance to participate, adults are encouraged to bring their child to one in-person storytime per week. However, adults are welcome to bring their child to their sibling’s in-person storytime if they had been included in the “Group” at the time of registration. Adults are also welcome to register their child for both an in-person storytime and a virtual storytime.
