1,000 Books Before Kindergarten
Start Your Little Ones Off Right From The Beginning!
Earn prizes to make an at home story time kit as you build reading habbits with your little one! Read a book (any book!) with your newborn, infant, toddler, or preschool-aged child. The goal is to read 1,000 books before they start kindergarten. Learn more about the program here.
Story Time
Join us for stories, songs, games and more!
Bring your little ones to sing songs, hear stories, play games, and meet other families at the Sharon Public Library’s story time programs. See our event calendar for current story time dates and times!
Story Times Fall 2025:
Strollers and Stories – Baby Story Time Ages 0-2:
Join us Mondays at 10:30 AM in the children’s room for a story time for little ones birth through two and their caregivers. We will sing songs, do some baby bounces, explore senses, and share books. Start your little one’s journey to literacy and chat with other caregivers.
Please register for this event to be notified of any cancellations. Walk-ins are welcome.
Crescent Ridge Story Time:
Through the end of September, join us at Crescent Ridge Dairy for weekly story time at 11 AM on Thursdays!
We will read books, sing songs, play games, and more! Books are geared toward children in 2-5 years old, but children outside that age range are welcome to join. Registration is not required but encouraged so you get notifications about weather related cancellations.
This story time will be outside in the sun so remember your sunscreen! Feel free to bring a blanket, chairs, picnic and whatever else will keep you and your little ones comfortable. In the event of bad weather, story time will be canceled. Announcements will be made here in the calendar, via email, and on social media if it is moved indoors.
Crescent Ridge Dairy is located at 407 Bay Rd, Sharon, MA 02067. Story time will be held in the field next to the dairy bar. Look for the goats and white tent. I recommend parking behind the dairy bar so you are close to the gate and away from ice cream traffic.
Tinker Time
In October, join us for an interactive story time program geared towards ages 18M to 5Y and their caregivers. After a story and song or two, create a craft with your little one. Then explore different sensory stations and early literacy games with other families.
