Lalor Library Storytime & Toy Library

The library has a number of story/reading based programs plus a Toy Library.

Yarra Plenty Regional Library Services offers a number of story/reading based programs including:

Baby Storytime
Simple rhymes, songs, and fingerplay. You are never too young for storytime! For 0-12-month-old babies. Parents and carers can pick up some tips and tricks to kick-start your child's development and meet other local families. A love for learning and reading will help your child as they grow and benefit them for the rest of their life. Beginner skills start here.

Toddler Storytime
Stories, rhymes, simple dances and activities developed for your toddler. For 1-3-year-old toddlers. A lively, interactive session to help build your child's pre-reading skills. Storytimes may be fun but your toddler is getting so much more out of it than half an hour of entertainment. They are secretly learning lots! It is improving their vocabulary, memory and listening skills plus developing their thinking and imagination too.

Preschool Storytime
Learn with fun stories, action songs, and great reading activities. For 3-5-year-old children. Help your child prepare for school. Storytime is a fantastic opportunity for your child to practise skills like sitting still, listening and using inside voices. They watch adults model behaviours and learn reading concepts like following words from left to right and associating spoken words with written words. Pre-reading skills help them to become independent readers.

Family Storytime
A storytime made for children of different ages and development levels (up to 5 years old). This open session will feature songs, rhymes and stories but the expert storyteller will adjust the session depending on the abilities of those who attend on the day. Do you have multiple children and can't attend multiple storytime sessions? Do you want to make sure they are all getting the most out of storytime for their skills? Or did you just miss your usual storytime and not want to wait till next week? Then this session is for you.
