Program Description

Event Details

Stories, Songs, and Stretches!® envisions an entire generation of mindful kids who are school-ready in body, heart, and mind.   The program is held in the Story Garden on the third floor of the Library.

This storytime program, most appropriate for ages 3-5+, engages your child in embodied play that encourages the development of early literacy, social-emotional, executive functioning, and physical literacy skills by using yoga shapes to move through stories and songs.  Adult participation in the program is highly encouraged.  

*This is not a yoga class for children, rather we use yoga shapes to inspire movement.  You do not need to have any prior experience or knowledge of yoga to participate; you don't even need to be flexible.  Our goal is to have fun and inspire learning through play.  You are your child's first teacher and they will model your behavior; your participation will ensure an engaging and meaningful experience.

Yoga mats will be provided for both adult and child, but you are welcome to bring your own.
