Explore the Outdoors and Take a StoryWalk®!
For infants-age 9Early spring is the perfect time to take a stroll and read a good book on a new StoryWalk®. Pages of a children's picture book are displayed on signs along a path so that families can read the book, page by page, as they walk. StoryWalks® combine three important elements that promote learning: reading, moving, and enjoying the outdoors.
