Hola! Hello! Ni Hao! Bonjour! Welcome to “Online Storytime!”

Online Storytime is 30 minutes of stories for little kids who are staying in the house all day. It includes storybook readings and songs, read and sung by a group of friends. We’re doing it to keep ourselves sane, your kids entertained, and perhaps give you a little break in your hectic day. 

Storytime is on Thursdays at 4:30 p.m. PST

Sign up here to get login details so you and your littles can tune in.

Sign up here to volunteer to read, sing, or help out.

 

Hope this brings you a little joy.

If you have any questions please check the Contact Lucy page and send me an email.
