Calling all bookworms! Ballard Preschool Co-op (BPC) is thrilled to present its monthly Ballard Bookworms story time, a free community program for children and their caregivers. Join BPC's beloved Teacher Katie for a fun and engaging story time experience designed to spark a love of reading and build connections within our community. In the upcoming 2025-26 school year, Katie is teaching, the Toddlers Class, the Twos Class and one of our NEW OUTDOOR CLASSES Junior Explorers.
Our special guest for the month is Sam Kelly of The Art Room, which offers sensory play and open-ended, child-led art classes.

The event will be hosted from the band stage in the Ballard Locks’ Carl S. English Jr. Botanical Garden. Caregivers are encouraged to bring blankets as guests will be sitting on the grassy lawn. Should it rain, the event will be moved inside to the Visitor Center.
