Storytime in the ELC

Reading and storytelling with your child promotes brain development and imagination, teaches your child about language and emotions, and strengthens your relationship. Our ELC educators are wonderful storytellers and we invite you to create some special time to share in the delight of story-time with your child, because anytime is a good time for a story!
