A free, 30-minute early-literacy session at J. Erik Jonsson Central Library pairs stories and songs with reading-readiness practice. The library suggests ages 18 months to 3 years.

All times are local to the venue · America/Chicago
Stories and songs are paired with practice in early reading skills at Toddler Story Time, making the Nov. 6 gathering a broader literacy activity than a read-aloud alone.
The listed Friday dates pause after Nov. 20 and resume Dec. 4, with no Nov. 27 session shown. Check the dates before planning a later visit rather than assuming the program meets every Friday.
