An illustrated “Happy Diwali” greeting shows decorative yellow garlands across the top and the words “Happy Diwali” in bold purple and red letters with small sparkles around them. Below the text, a person sits on a yellow beanbag reading a book aloud to a small group of children who are seated on the floor, listening. Another adult sits behind the group of children. The scene is colorful and festive.

Saturday Stories: Diwali Edition

Enjoy stories, songs and rhymes for the whole family at this interactive Storytime honoring Diwali!

All ages welcome!

Tips for a Successful Storytime
  • Sit, sing, & listen to stories together. The more you participate in storytime, the more children will participate, enjoy, and learn from storytime.
  • Please be timely. Storytimes are short and every minute is full of fun and learning opportunities. 
  • Be responsive to your child. Some days children aren't in the right mood for storytime. If a child is having a bad day or becomes disruptive, please feel free to take a break and try again.
  • Please enjoy your food, cell phones, and side conversations after storytime.
