Pop-Up Storytime is Back This Summer!
Summer is the perfect time to enjoy stories outdoors, and Pop-Up Storytime is back at Kawartha Lakes Public Library!
Join us for 30 minutes of free outdoor fun featuring stories, songs, rhymes, and early literacy activities in parks and community spaces across Kawartha Lakes. With seven pop-up locations and a variety of dates and times planned throughout the summer, it's easy to join a storytime near you.
Designed for young children and their caregivers, Pop-Up Storytime is a wonderful way to spend time together, meet other families, and enjoy the fresh air while building early literacy skills through play and storytelling. No registration required.
