About the event

Ms. Patty & Ms. Sara are here to help prepare your Talker (kids ages 2-3) as they begin the process of learning to read. Structured similar to storytimes, we will teach parents how to help their toddler learn important pre-reading skills that can dramatically increase language development. Classes are held on Monday, June 8th and Monday, June 29th at 11:00am at the East Regional Library. You only need to attend one class.

Each child will receive a bag filled with early literacy tools to use at home as they continue the path to becoming a reader.

For children ages 2-3 years old. To help us manage space, please register only the child participating in the storytime. Adults are not counted in registration.

This initiative is made possible from the generous support of the Durham Library Foundation.

We will provide the equipment; you bring weather-appropriate clothing and closed-toe shoes. Registration is required for all. Ages: 7 yrs +,
