Storytime with Learning Through Art
Saturday, November 21 at Fountain Square, Cincinnati
About this event
Start Saturday morning with a story time for the kids! Learning Through Art leads a free story time inside Winterhaus, featuring stories such as "The Magic Ukulele," "The Last Stop on Market Street," "I'm New Here" and "The Snowy Day."
Who's playing
Learning Through Art, Inc. is a Cincinnati nonprofit behind Books Alive! For Kids, a literacy program that reaches early readers through sight, sound and touch. Its read-alongs use a curated library of children's books, and it hosts events at libraries, schools and arts venues around the region. Its storytellers bring that same approach to Fountain Square.
What to expect
A leader reads aloud to a group, with the books chosen for young listeners. Learning Through Art's programs usually mix reading with hands-on art and music. Winterhaus is a 65-foot by 65-foot tent with comfortable seating, so the room feels settled rather than busy.
Why go
A story time in a heated space in the middle of Downtown is an easy outing when the weather turns cold. The book list pairs a classic like The Snowy Day with newer titles such as I'm New Here, which suits a mixed group of listeners. It is a good way to spend a morning on the Square with small children.
