Lapsit Storytime

NYPL Webster Library · Upper East Side

Join us for a special time to bond with your little one and meet other caregivers. We will explore the joys of books, songs, and gentle movement in addition to building early learning skills you can practice at home. Come prepared to sit with your child on your lap. Best for children who are pre-walkers (~0-18 months) and who prefer a gentle, slow-paced program. To allow as many families as possible to participate, we ask families to choose between Lapsit or Little Movers storytime each week. Please attend just ONE session each week of whichever program best matches your child's developmental stage. Please Note: First-come, first served. Limited to 15 children plus caregiver(s). Ticket required for entry. Tickets for the 11:15 program will be available in the Children's Room starting at 11 AM.

Story-Craft

NYPL Webster Library · Upper East Side

This event will take place in person at the Webster Library. Join us on a journey of exploration and creation. Each week we'll read a book from the collection and then jump into some crafting, based on or inspired by what we've read. Coloring, collaging, painting, drawing, sculpting, bookmark and buttonmaking, the only limit is our imagination. Things could get messy! On September 24, we'll have a special Story-Craft program in honor of Winnie-the-Pooh's upcoming 100th birthday! We will celebrate everyone's favorite "Silly Old Bear" through our read-aloud and craft activity, and copies of Winnie-the-Pooh, donated by Penguin Random House, will be available to program participants on a first-come, first-served basis. Open to ages 4-12. All children age 7 or under must be accompanied by a caregiver. Please Note: First-come, first served. Limited to 12 children plus caregiver(s). Ticket required for entry. Tickets will be available at the circulation desk starting 15 min before the program. This program will take place on the third floor.
