Every Tuesday morning, until October 11, at South Milwaukee library is story time for kids 2-6 years old. It starts at 10:30 am and lasts about 1/2 hour to 45 minutes.
The librarian will read or tell stories, or give a puppet show. Sometimes she uses a flannel board to tell the story. Each Tuesday, your child will hear about 4 stories. In between, kids will participate in movement poems to help them shake off excess energy. At the end of the session there's a a craft actvitiy relating to the theme of the day. Examples include baking a cake, coloring in coloring books and other things. There's also a show and tell at the end of the session.
Story Time at South Milwaukee library lasts for 6 Tuesdays. The last session (October 11) is a party, where kids can bring a treat for their friends and pass it around. After that, there's a 4 week break. The next Story Time series starts November 8.

This activity is appropriate for kids between 2 and 6 years. If your child is under 3, you must stay in the room with them. If she or he is over 3, a parent or adult must remain in the library, but not necessarily in the story room.
Although Story Time is free, you must register for the entire series. There's a limit of 25 so that the librarian can bring enough materials for the craft activity at the end of each session.
