Music, a universal language, adds so much to storytimes. In this webinar, presented by Kim Lehman, learn ways to use music with young children in storytimes through songs, movement, literature, puppets, and props. Music in library storytimes is not about having
the perfect voice or playing an instrument. It is about the magic that sounds and poetry bring to our shared experience. Whether you sing openly or in the privacy of your own shower, join us for fun and ideas. You will be inspired to warble a tune before the

<br>
<span class="details">Participants will be able to:</span><br>
<span class="details">• Use opening and closing songs in storytimes</span><br>

Children have an innate curiosity about the physical world around them. Storytimes offer a unique opportunity to help young children understand and organize information needed to make connections and solve problems. This webinar, presented by Kim Lehman, will
explore inexpensive, easy to implement science and math experiences using literature, fingerplays, activities, and props. These ideas can be used in storytimes, as passive programming in the library, or as resources for parents and caregivers to extend the
storytime experience for further STEM explorations.<o:p></o:p></p>
