Storywalks

 
Picture

Enjoy reading AND the outdoors at the same time! A StoryWalk® is a fun family activity that places a children’s story (literally a book taken apart) along a walking trail. As you stroll, you and your child are directed to the next page in the story. Geared toward toddler - preschool age, but all are welcome!
Stories will be posted from 10am to 12pm on Mondays at the Mashpee Public Library Green and Wednesdays on Falmouth Public Library Lawn. Take home activity packs will be available while supplies last. Sign up to get notified of the new stories each week!

 Virtual Playtime with Nancy

Virtual Playtime with Nancy

An interactive story and activity especially chosen to promote emergent literacy skills and motor development in young children. A new 15-20 minute video Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoons on YouTube. 
​

Through play, your child learns self-control, self-worth, problem solving, communicating and so much more.  While all children benefit from playtime with peers, there are unique benefits that come from you playing with your child.
