Storytime in the Commons is back for another season of fun character visits and outdoor storytimes. At this storytime, explore the fascinating world of science and nature. At Storytime in the Commons: Be My Neighbor Day, kids will learn about being a caring neighbor, meet neighborhood helpers from the St. Louis Public Library and St. Louis Fire Department, and have the opportunity to get their picture taken with Daniel Tiger and Miss Elaina from the PBS Kids series, Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood.
Limited free parking is available in the Nine PBS lot, accessible on Spring Ave. Doors open at 9:30 am and the event will last from 10 – 10:45 am. Guests of all ages are welcome.
This event has been thoughtfully designed to offer an enjoyable experience for individuals and families of all varying abilities and sensitivities. We invite you to bring any accommodations your group may need to feel comfortable (stuffies, headphones, etc).
