Storytime

Picture book stories for children under 5 years old. Come along to introduce them to the joys of exploring new worlds and fun stories. Free, no need to book, carers to stay.

- Picture books can help develop a child’s imagination by introducing new ideas into their world.

- Reading can help build emotional intelligence and empathy skills, enabling a stronger connection to other perspectives.

- By talking about human nature across different cultures, children begin to see how very different people share the same life experiences.

- Whilst they listen, children develop focus and concentration. At the same time, it can help to give them specific practice in word comprehension through exposure to interesting and meaningful content of stories.
