StoryWalk©
Explore the Outdoors and Take a StoryWalk®!
For infants-age 9
Get outdoors and enjoy books and nature at our StoryWalks®! Pages of a children's picture book are displayed on signs along a path so that families can read the book, page by page, as they walk. StoryWalks® combine three important elements that promote learning: reading, moving, and enjoying the outdoors.
StoryWalks® are accessible during park hours. For details, please call the host site.
The Republic Branch Library, 921 N. Lindsey Ave., will have StoryWalks® throughout the fall.
