The storytime, in the library's words

“Adaptive Storytime is a space to foster the early literacy skills of neurodivergent children or children who benefit from multisensory approaches to learning.”

“This smaller group event is designed to be welcoming for different abilities and needs. Adaptive Storytime incorporates movement, music, stories, sensory options, and play.”

“Some items for neurodivergent children to feel comfortable and confident in storytime will be provided. For example-noise cancelling headphones, fidgets, weighted items, and wiggle stools.”

“Please note: This storytime occurs before the library opens. Instructions for entering the building will be provided.”

  • Each date has its own registration, and each date below says when it opens.
  • This is a different storytime from the Adaptive Storytime at LINC in Greeley, which is also in the High Plains Library District.
