When is storytime at barnes and noble

Though the story times might be geared toward the younger crowd, Barnes and Noble has just the thing for older kids too.

Participate in Pilkeypalooza to celebrate the release of the newest Dog Man Book on December 10 at pm. Take your kids and let the experience them joy of running their hands along the bindings of a bunch of books while they consider which book might become theirs forever. I believe that visiting the library regularly is a necessary and beautiful part of childhood.

Nothing can quite compare with the allure of being able to check out almost as many books as your heart desires. But occasionally, being able to go to a bookstore to choose a book to take home and keep forever is a really special thing. Barnes and Noble typically has a Summer Reading Program where kids can earn prizes for reading throughout the summer. Check back here next summer to learn more. And if your child is like mine, just not too into the story, then grab a coffee at the Starbucks, and hang out at the Thomas the Train set in the back corner.

Your kids can still have great interactions with other children and get help reenforce the lessons of sharing. Often, coloring pages or activities will accompany the Saturday story times, and sometimes even a snack is handed out.

My young children most enjoy when there is a character visiting during the Saturday story time — I think this is once a month.

A few years back, we had an awesome Polaroid collection of my daughter — then three years old — with Cat in the Hat, the pig from "If You Give a Pig a Pancake", Clifford, Chrysanthemum, and more.
