Story Time for Children at the Library
We all know how important it is to give our children every advantage so that they are ready and eager to learn when they start school. The Burlingame Public Library offers Story Time for infants, babies, toddlers and preschoolers. Bring your preschoolers (ages 3-5) to the Library at 480 Primrose Road on Tuesdays at 10:30 AM for Preschool Story Time. These events are quite popular and it's also a good way to for your children to make new Burlingame friends! All said and done, there's almost 400 story times put on by the library every year!
On Wednesdays and Thursdays at 10:30 AM, babies from 18 months – 3 years old are entertained at the Toddler Story Time at the Main Branch on Primrose Road in downtown Burlingame (across from City Hall).
The Easton Branch at 1800 Easton Drive offers Toddler Story Time on Thursdays at 11:30 AM and Bedtime Story Time on Wednesdays at 7 PM. What a nice way for your toddler to end the day. For a complete calendar of Burlingame Library events for children, click here.
