Parents with children ages 1 through 3 have a great chance to meet and connect with other families while learning together.

When is it offered?

Teaching, Learning and Connecting play groups are offered each year at Hoyt, Butman Fish and Zauel Libraries. Registration is limited to one series per year per child.

Preschool Storytime

Join us for Preschool Storytime at the Library!

Preschool children can get a head start with reading by attending "Preschool Storytimes" sponsored by the Public Libraries of Saginaw. Each storytime features a variety of stories and activities designed to make reading fun for young children. The programs are designed for children ages 3 to 5. Afterwards, library staff members will work with parents to pick out books and other materials that they can share with their children. Hoyt Main Library, Butman-Fish Library, and Zauel Memorial Library have weekly storytimes that are open to the public. All library programs are free and families are welcome.
