Storytime
Storytime is held on Tuesdays at 10:30 am-check our calendar for an up to date schedule.
Storytime at Wilberg Memorial Public Library is Early Literacy Based fun for the whole family. There are songs, rhymes, finger-plays, and-of course-books! Following Storytime, join us for a fun craft or art project (some of these can be messy, so dress appropriately).
Every Storytime is crafted to support early literacy development. Books, rhymes, and activities are carefully selected and sequenced with the six aspects of early literacy in mind. You can see these in the diagram below-

1,000 Books Before Kindergarten
Register your little ones, newborns included, for this wonderful opportunity when you pick up a reading packet at the WMPL circulation desk! Early Literacy prepares children for school and creates skills for lifelong learning. The average picture book takes about 5 minutes to read. That means you can read 1,000 books before they begin school in less than 15 minutes a day! Here’s what you do:
- Read! Any book counts-books read at library Storytime, books on CD, eBooks, and you can even read the same book over and over again!
- Keep track! Ask for the 1,000 Books packet at the WMPL circulation desk.
- When you’ve read the first 100 books, come to the library circulation desk for a new book of your very own plus receive a “We’ve Read 100 Books” sticker!
- Each time you’ve completed reading another 100 books, you may stop at the circulation desk for the next milestone sticker.
- When you’ve read 1,000 books, your child will receive a certificate; with permission, have their photo taken for Facebook; and they may select a favorite book to add to our library’s collection as well as be the first one to check it out!
For more information, see one of our friendly library staff.
